Daniele De Rossi is pondering a formation switch due to Paulo Dybala’s questionable status for tonight’s return leg with Bayer Leverkusen.

The Argentine forward is still not 100% and therefore De Rossi would rather not risk him from the start.

As a result, La Gazzetta dello Sport claims De Rossi could propose a line-up consisting of two strikers.

Romelu Lukaku would be paired up with Tammy Abraham who is currently favored to start ahead of Sardar Azmoun.

If De Rossi were to settle for a less attacking formation, Tommaso Baldanzi would also be eligible to start in Dybala’s place.
