PROBABLE LINE-UPS |
|
ROMA
Stekelenburg Taddei, Juan, Heinze, Jose Angel Pjanic, De Rossi, Greco Lamela, Totti, Bojan |
Injuries to defenders Marco Cassetti and Nicolas Burdisso will see Taddei move into a full-back role and Gabriel Heinze partner Juan in central defense. Leading scorer Pablo Osvaldo will likely miss the match with a thigh injury he sustained in training last week.
Fiorentina coach Delio Rossi could rest Valon Behrami after the Switzerland international picked up a knock at the weekend, while Khouma Babacar is still not yet ready to feature for the Viola.
