Christian Panucci, former Roma right-back, was interviewed by Retesport and spoke about the Derby:
“Salah? It would be a big loss for Roma, although, he’s lost a bit in his second season here but regardless, Perotti doesn’t have his speed. Roma could, though, play with two strikers, or put Totti on and then replace him. The Derby goes beyond tactics, with Lazio, Roma can not lose their balance as they did with Pescara. This Roma is not very different from the first one of Spalletti, the difference is that the defense of the first time was stronger, it had more craft and character. Dzeko? This year he’s done better, the Bosnian is losing his man and bolting towards the goal, this is exactly as Spalletti did with Totti in his first stint.”
