Real Madrid vs AS Roma Tickets

Real Madrid are a league ahead of their rivals when it comes to success in this competition, and no doubt that means that their supporters continually expect the Santiago Bernabeu side to deliver the goods.

Whenever Real Madrid are in UEFA Champions League action, you can expect the Bernabeu to be full to the brim and rocking with a great atmosphere, and the visit of AS Roma is sure to lead to an increased interest in tickets, so make sure you get in early and make the most of what SeatPick has to offer.

Real Madrid won the first five editions of the European Cup, and that can be considered one of three periods in their history where they were absolutely dominant in the game.

That early era, with Messrs. Di Stefano, Gento, and Puskas working their magic, was followed by three decades of relative quiet.

The club then got back into the swing of things between 1998 and 2002 when three UEFA Champions League crowns were secured. The most impressive of those wins was perhaps their 3-0 dismantling of La Liga rivals Valencia in 2000.

Their third era of all-conquering Real Madrid can be considered to have occurred between 2014 and 2022 when the club won five titles, including three on the spin under Zinedine Zidane, with Carlo Ancelotti's successes in 2014 and 2022 bookending that run of great form.

AS Roma entered the European Cup with a bang. The Giallorossi used home form to lead their run to the final in 1983/84, their first campaign in the tournament. On the way to meeting Liverpool, they won all four of their home legs, while they fell to defeats away at IFK Goteborg, Berliner Dynamo, and Dundee United, but somehow still got to the finale of the competition.

It was then perhaps a tad ironic that they lost to Liverpool in that final, given it was actually also played at the Stadio Olimpico. Both Bruno Conti and Francesco Graziani missed their penalties after a 1-1 draw, leaving Alan Kennedy to net the decisive spot-kick.

In 2006/07, they got to the UEFA Champions League Quater-Finals but were thumped 8-3 on aggregate by Manchester United and lost to the same opponents the following season.

In 2017/18, it was another Premier League side that did the damage, Liverpool again, who defeated AS Roma 7-6 in an exciting Semi-Final clash.

Real Madrid vs AS Roma Head-to-Head

Real Madrid have faced AS Roma in no fewer than six European campaigns, the first three of which could be considered as far more successful for the Spanish side. However, in 2007/08, the Italians put up more of a fight.

The Round of 16 clash saw David Pizarro and Mancini give AS Roma a 2-1 home leg lead to take to Madrid. Defender Pepe was ordered off after 71 minutes, and Rodrigo Taddei promptly put Roma ahead.

Raul leveled on the night, but a late goal from Mirko Vucinic confirmed safe passage for AS Roma to the Quarter-Finals.

In 2015/16, also in the Round of 16, AS Roma were safely disposed of, 4-0 on aggregate, and when the two teams met in the group stage of the 2018/19 edition of the UEFA Champions League, Real Madrid won 3-0 at home and 2-0 away.
