Roma have lost just one of their five UEFA Europa League matches against fellow Italian opposition (W2 D2), winning their most recent at home against Milan in the 2023-24 quarter-finals.
Bologna have won two of their last three away games against Roma in all competitions, but did lose 1-0 on the opening day of the 2025-26 Serie A season at the Stadio Olimpico.
Roma have drawn their last two UEFA Europa League games, last drawing more consecutively in major European competition in the 2000-01 UEFA Champions League (5 in a row); should the second leg of this tie end level,I Giallorossi have only won one of their last five penalty shootouts in Europe (L4).
Bologna remain unbeaten in each of their last 10 games in major European competition (W6 D4), now their outright longest run, beating out a nine-game stretch between 1964 and 1967.
Only two players have recorded more carries of 5+ metres ending in a shot than Bologna’s Federico Bernardeschi in the UEFA Europa League this season (11); on his 59th appearance in major European competition in the first leg, the 32-year-old recorded 10 dribbles for the first time.
