Meanwhile, Ajax was defeated 1-0 at home by Twente in the Vrouwen Eredivisie. Renate Jansen's 22nd-minute strike proved decisive between the two teams.

These two sides claimed shock results in their tournament opener last week to indicate that qualification from this group might not be as straightforward as initially expected.

Roma, in particular, proved their mettle, coming back from being two goals down at halftime to snatch a point against Bayern. Le Giallorosse have started the campaign immaculately and are on course to successfully defend their league title. Ajax followed up their Champions League victory with a defeat in the league over the weekend and will be keen to get back to winning ways.

We are backing Roma to claim a narrow win with goals at both ends.
