Roma will be able to rely on two key players for the upcoming Derby della Capitale with Lazio.

As seen yesterday, following his appearance as as substitute at Lecce, Paulo Dybala is set to resume playing for the Giallorossi from the start in the Derby with Lazio on Saturday.

According to Corriere dello Sport, Dybala will be ready to start – the player is feeling good enough to play more than one half and Daniele De Rossi is hoping to deploy him for a memorable first Derby in his coaching career.

At the same time, Lorenzo Pellegrini will be back in Roma’s starting formation as well.

The skipper had been suspended for the last Serie A matchday and replaced by an underwhelming Edoardo Bove in last night’s 0-0 draw with Lecce.
