Pellegrini & Mkhitaryan to start behind Abraham in Samp-Roma

Jose Mourinho is chasing his 10th consecutive unbeaten result in Roma’s upcoming trip away at the Ferraris Stadium against Sampdoria.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the Special One is likely to reimplement the same starting eleven from the Derby della Capitale on Sunday evening.


The Portuguese technician is expected to once again resort to a 3-4-2-1 formation with Lorenzo Pellegrini and Henrikh Mkhitaryan behind Tammy Abraham.

In the meantime, Bryan Cristante and Sergio Oliveira will take up duties in the midfield with Zalewski and Karsdorp on the flanks.
