The struggles for Italian side AS Roma have continued in the 2018/2019 domestic season, with only two wins in their last five matches, per Soccerway — including a 7-1 drubbing at the hands of Fiorentina in an Italian Cup match just two weeks ago. But they squeaked through the UEFA Champions League group stage with a 3-3 record, entitling them to open the knockout round against an often overlooked but extremely dangerous opponent in the Portuguese leaders and defending champions, FC Porto. They will engage in a Round of 16 first-leg showdown that will stream live from the Italian capital city.
