Nicola Zalewski, Andrea Belotti favored to start in Real Betis clash

Roma are looking to further improve their Europa League record in tonight’s showdown at the Stadio Olimpico with Manuel Pellegrini’s Real Betis.

According to several Italian media outlets, Mourinho’s turnover will be minimal unlike previous reports suggested: only Nicola Zalewski is expected to overtake Leonardo Spinazzola in Roma’s starting eleven.


Furthermore, Andrea Belotti is favored to lead the attack at the moment. However, Tammy Abraham is also projected to start by some Italian newspapers.

Chris Smalling will start once again as Marash Kumbulla is not ready to play a full game yet after returning from injury earlier in the week.
