Neck and neck in the Serie A standings. AS Roma (1st, 6 pts) host Inter (2nd, 6 pts) in a contest that promises intensity.
Inter are no pushovers away from home. W1 D0 L0 from 1 away trips, scoring 1.0 per game on the road. AS Roma (W1 D0 L0 at home) can't afford to take this lightly. Both sides are prolific in front of goal. AS Roma average 4.0 per game and Inter chip in with 2.5. Expect an open, attacking contest. One thing to keep in mind about AS Roma. They're scoring 4.0 goals per game but the quality of chances they create only works out at 1.7. Scoring that much more than the chances suggest (+0.4), that kind of hot finishing usually cools off, so their results may be flattering their actual play. Inter could be in for a similar cool-off. 2.5 goals a game against chance quality worth only 1.7. Hot finishing has been covering for the fact they aren't creating that much. The gap in chance quality is clear: AS Roma come out at +0.8 a game (chances they create minus chances they give up) compared to +0.3. that's a real edge in the quality of chances. AS Roma have been even sharper lately. The chances they create are worth 2.3 a game over their last 5 compared to a season average of 1.7. They're creating more as the season goes on.
xG explained: Expected Goals measures chance quality. 1.5 xG = a side typically converts those chances into 1.5 goals. Outscoring xG = running hot, possible regression risk.
AS Roma create chances worth 1.7 a game (and give up chances worth 0.9), leaving them +0.8 a game on the balance. Inter create 1.7 (giving up 1.4) for a balance of +0.3. The underlying numbers clearly favour AS Roma. They're creating better chances AND giving up fewer good ones. AS Roma are scoring 4.0 goals a game off chances worth just 1.7. That's +0.4 more than the chances suggest: finishing hot. History says this kind of run usually cools off. Inter are also scoring more than their chances suggest (2.5 goals vs chance quality of 1.7). Both runs could cool off at once. AS Roma are trending upwards. Their chances are worth 2.3 a game over the last 5 vs 1.7 for the season. They're in a real attacking groove.
Goals look likely here. AS Roma average 4.0 per game (4.0 at home) and Inter chip in with 2.5 (1.0 away). Defensively, AS Roma concede 0.0 at home and Inter leak 0.0 on the road. We make it 64% for three or more goals. The numbers back it without being overwhelming. Whether both teams score is a genuine coin-flip, and we make it 53%. The chance-quality data backs the goals case. AS Roma create chances worth 1.7 a game and Inter 1.7. Combined, that's 3.3 a game from open play alone.
Clean sheets are a feature here. Both teams score in only 26% of AS Roma's home games and 42% of Inter's away fixtures.
The stakes are high for AS Roma at this stage of the season. Their fans will expect a performance, and the home support will be vocal in driving them on. Inter face a tough afternoon.
This has title race implications written all over it. AS Roma sit 1st while Inter are 2nd. Three points here could prove decisive come May.
AS Roma are in great shape right now, banging in 4.0 a game and only letting in 0.3. They're strong at both ends, so they tend to boss games and don't give much away at the back. Inter are similarly well-balanced. 2.5 scored, 0.5 conceded per game. This has the makings of a tight, tactical game between two organised sides. Both sides keep clean sheets regularly. This could be a tight, low-block affair where the first goal is decisive.
Most likely scorelines: 2-1 (9%) and 3-1 (7%).
