Europa League draws, Roma unlucky: will challenge Porto

It did not go well for Roma in the draws for the Europa League play-offs, scheduled between Feb. 13 (first leg) and Feb. 20 (return leg). The Giallorossi, in fact, who could draw one between Ferencvaros and Porto, found the latter in the draw that took place in Nyon.

Roma, as the top seed, will have the advantage of playing the return match of the round of 16 at home. It will therefore start at the 'Do Dragao' on Thursday, Feb. 13, while on Thursday, Feb. 20, the Giallorossi will play for qualification at the Olimpico, in front of their home crowd.

Should they pass the round, Roma could face Lazio in the round of 16 in an electrifying derby. In the round of 16, in fact, the Giallorossi will face either the Biancocelesti or Athletic Bilbao.
