Looking to make it two wins from two games in Group C of the UEFA Europa Conference League, AS Roma take a trip to Slavutych-Arena to face Zorya Luhansk on Thursday.
The visitors, meanwhile, head into the game on a run of two straight wins and will be looking to carry on the momentum and pick up their first win of the tournament.
Zorya made it two wins on the bounce last Sunday when they claimed a thrilling 4-0 victory away to SC Dnipro-1 in round nine of the Ukrainian top-flight.
This followed a 3-0 win over Chornomorets Odesa on home turf to end their run of two winless games.
Viktor Skrypnyk’s side will now be looking to build on their recent wins and pick up their first group victory, having lost 3-1 against Bodo / Glimt in their group curtain-raiser.
Meanwhile, after a blistering start to the season, AS Roma appear to have run out of steam as they fell to a 3-2 defeat against Lazio last Sunday in Serie A.
It was the second defeat in three games for Jose Mourinho’s men, who picked up six consecutive wins from their first six games in all competitions.
AS Roma will now return to the Conference League, where they claimed a resounding 5-1 victory over 10-man CSKA Sofia in their Group C opener two weeks ago.
