On Thursday, the Athletic Club arrives at the Olimpico, but Ranieri cannot make any calculations: he will play the best possible formation.
Roma is ready to return to the field, once again at the Olimpico. At 6 pm, the Fabregas-led Como arrives, fresh from victories against Fiorentina (away) and Napoli. A real test of maturity as it refers to the last team that triumphed over the yellow-reds on December 15th. Ranieri can’t afford to think about Thursday and will field the best players on the pitch: the defense trio includes Celik-Mancini-Ndicka. On the flanks, Saelemaekers and Angelino are confirmed, both of whom scored in the last championship match, with Koné and Paredes holding down the midfield. Behind Shomurodov (with Dovbyk starting from the bench), there’s a showdown between Pellegrini and Pisilli playing beside Dybala, who’s making his return from the first minute. LA GAZZETTA DELLO SPORT (3-4-2-1): Svilar; Celik, Mancini, Ndicka; Saelemaekers, Koné, Paredes, Angelino; Dybala, Pellegrini; Shomurodov.
