Roma will return to a Champions League match tomorrow at 6:45 PM, after a seven-year absence.
The match will be in Istanbul, away to Fenerbahçe. The team will arrive in Turkey this afternoon, and Gasperini will speak at a press conference at 6:00 PM local time (5:00 PM Italian time).
Afterwards, about 30 minutes later, the Giallorossi will hold their usual finishing practice.
The Grugliasco-born coach must decide whether to give continuity to the players who have earned nine points in their first three Serie A matches, or make some small changes to the starting lineup. His focus will be on Soulé and Molina.
Gian Piero Gasperini isn’t planning on shaking up his starting lineup in Istanbul, compared to the one he’s been doing so well in the league. As La Gazzetta dello Sport reports, Nahuel Molina, who came on well against Atalanta, will likely start.
It’s important to note that young Lulli could be forced to make his debut in a major competition like the Champions League in a fiery stadium like Turkey.
Matias Soulé, who scored the winner in the league match against Atalanta, is also expected to return to the starting lineup. Up front, an Argentine duo is likely, with Dybala and the former Frosinone player behind Malen.
