    Carles Perez scored his first goal for the Giallorossi during the game - from just his second shot on target since making the move to the Italian capital.

    Carles Perez made his mark after just 12 minutes and two seconds of the game: only Diego Perotti has scored faster for Roma in a Europa League game this season.

    14

    Roma are unbeaten in 14 of their last 15 home games in UEFA competition (11 wins, three draws). They have also kept a clean sheet on nine of those occasions.
