Roma are preparing a light rotation of their starting formation for the upcoming Europa League showdown with Brighton.

As the Giallorossi approach Thursday’s fixture, Daniele De Rossi is thinking of his strongest line-up.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, De Rossi will not have much choice in the matter of who gets to start on the right flank as both Karsdorp and Kristensen remain out with injuries.

Zeki Celik is projected to start in their place after delivering a convincing performance on the weekend with Monza.

In the meantime, Leonardo Spinazzola will feature on the left flank instead of Angelino.

Whereas Dybala, El Shaarawy and Lukaku will lead the attack, Pellegrini, Paredes and Cristante will once again command the midfield.
