Team News AS Roma
AS Roma have goalkeeper problems: Mile Svilar remains sidelined through injury, and Pierluigi Gollini missed the Manchester United trip with a back problem and is a doubt — Devis Vásquez, who started at Old Trafford, could keep his place. No other Roma absentees were named in the sources checked.
Predicted AS Roma XI (predicted only, not confirmed): Gollini; Ghilardi, N’Dicka, Hermoso; Molina, Cristante, de Roon, Wesley; Soulé, Rodrigo Mora; Malen. If Gollini does not recover, Vásquez starts in goal.
Team News Sassuolo
Sassuolo welcome back Kristian Thorstvedt from suspension. Ismaël Koné, Daniel Boloca, Edoardo Pieragnolo and Yeferson Paz are listed as out, while Fali Candé’s status is uncertain — one source lists him as out, but he appears in predicted XIs elsewhere, so he is not stated as definitely out here.
Predicted Sassuolo XI (predicted only, not confirmed): Turati; Walukiewicz, Idzes, Candé, Doig; Adžić, Matić, Sulemana; Berardi, Esposito, Laurienté.
