Join us for all the build-up and action as it happens from the Europa League, as Gian Piero Gasperini’s Roma begin their campaign away to OGC Nice.
It kicks off at the Allianz Riviera at 20.00 UK time (19.00 GMT).
The Giallorossi are coming off a derby victory over Lazio and Gasperini won this tournament with Atalanta in 2024.
You can watch the Europa League on TNT Sports in the UK, or Paramount+ and TUDN in the USA, while DAZN has the rights in Canada.
Gian Piero Gasperini has regrets over the ‘avoidable’ OGC Nice penalty, as while Roma won in the Europa League, they ‘need to learn fast from these mistakes.’

Roma got off to a strong Europa League start with their 2-1 victory away to OGC Nice thanks to goals from defenders Evan N’Dicka and Gianluca Mancini.

Better! Pisilli wins it back in midfield, then the Ferguson shot is deflected for a corner.
Fortunately for Roma, the Diop through ball rolls straight out of play. Now for Svilar to waste a bit of time.
Gasperini is fuming like a caged lion after a Roma counter falls apart.
Gasperini gets booked for dissent, because the referee has booked everyone else representing Roma, he may as well.
Into 4 minutes of added time.
Mario Hermoso does go into the box this time for a shove on Cho.
Bit of a grumble from the crowd when Cho went down, but it was a bit of a dive under pressure from Hermoso.
Tsimikas cross from the left for Roma, into the arms of the goalkeeper.
Clauss cross from the right, but Svilar reads it well to intercept.
Mario Hermoso on, Rensch off for Roma.
Bard and Boga off for Nice, Cho and Ali Abdi on.
Tsimikas booked for waving an arm in the general direction of an opponent. Again, harsh.
Penalty taken with a hop, skip and a jump to beat Svilar.
Pisilli and Mendy both sprint down the Nice right flank, go down at the by-line in a tangle, Pisilli had his arms around him and the referee after a pause decides on a penalty. He took a while over that. It started outside, but the foul was inside.
Pisilli, Cristante and Ferguson on for Roma.
Soule’, Manu Kone’ and Dovbyk off.
Does that count as a shot on target from Moffi? Perhaps. Was weak and easy for Svilar regardless.
Clauss corner is cleared, Nice are trying to respond now.
Gianluca Mancini fires home to double the lead for Roma 💥
Nice owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe does not look happy 😤

Kevin Carlos, Boudaoui and Sanson off for Nice, Diop, Clauss and Moffi on.
Clauss and Moffi were the ones left out for turning up late to a team meeting.
And they’re not going to with crosses like that, floated straight out of play.
Nice have still not had a shot on target.
