This is the first ever meeting between Tottenham Hotspur and Roma – Spurs have lost just one of their 10 home games against Italian sides in all competitions (W5 D4), going down 2-1 against Juventus in March 2018.

Roma have won just one of their 23 away games against English sides in all competitions (D8 L14), and are winless in 15 since a 1-0 win at Liverpool in February 2001.

Tottenham Hotspur have won their last seven home matches in the UEFA Europa League without conceding a single goal while scoring 19 goals themselves.

Roma have completed the most passes (2,199) in the UEFA Europa League this season, although they’ve only netted three goals. Among teams to score at least once, only Ludogorets (one goal for every 1,096 successful passes) have a worse goal per successful pass ratio than Roma (one every 733 passes).

Brennan Johnson has been directly involved in three goals in four UEFA Europa League games for Tottenham this season (2 goals, 1 assist), the most by a Welsh player in a campaign in the competition since Gareth Bale in 2020-21, also for Spurs (3 goals, 1 assist).
