Roma will look to secure a win in tonight’s crucial return leg of the Europa League playoffs with Feyenoord after drawing last week in Rotterdam.

De Rossi and his men will square off against Arne Slot’s team in a sold-out Stadio Olimpico, with over 67,000 home supporters in attendance.

According to Corriere dello Sport, Roma’s line-up will undergo a number of changes compared to Sunday’s outing with Frosinone.

First and foremost, Stephan El Shaarawy, Lorenzo Pellegrini and Paulo Dybala will slot back into the attacking line-up alongside Romelu Lukaku.

Compared to the first leg in Rotterdam, El Shaarawy is currently favored to start over Nicola Zalewski.

Lorenzo Pellegrini will also be back from the first minute as he replaces Edoardo Bove who will not be eligible to play tonight due to suspension.
