One last push before taking a breather. Roma wants to erase the disappointment of Manchester and resume their run in the league, where they continue to be a key player. Today – November 7 – Sassuolo, led by former manager Alberto Aquilani , arrives at the Olimpico, at a time that is anything but easy. For Gasperini, it's a chance to immediately return to winning ways and close out their tour de force with three points before the international break.
Koné is back in the squad and will start from the start. However, in addition to Gollini, Dybala, Svilar, and Rensch, Mancini is also out . Vásquez will once again start in goal . In defense, one of Ghilardi will replace Mancini, with Ndicka and Hermoso in the back. Mora is expected to start in the attacking midfield. In midfield, one of De Roon or Cristante will join Koné.
Aquilani also faces significant absences. The Neroverdi coach will be at the Olimpico without Berardi and Volpato and is evaluating two attacking options: Bowie, for a more attacking team with two attacking midfielders behind the striker, or Adzic, who would provide more coverage in midfield, leaving Laurienté and Esposito up front.
