Roma's calamitous season has turned a slight corner in the shape of three consecutive positive results. Back-to-back 1-0 wins over Parma and Venezia in the league, while unimpressive, have kept alive Giallorossi hopes of joining the congested pack fighting for the European places.

Lowly Osasuna frustrated Real Madrid at the weekend as Jude Bellingham was sent off and they were held to a 1-1 draw. That result saw bitter rivals Barcelona leapfrog them back to the top of La Liga. Perhaps they had one eye on this huge match. Two late goals from former City player Brahim Diaz and Bellingham saw Carlo Ancelotti's men end the first leg with a slender lead to take back to Madrid.
