Chances of seeing Tommaso Baldanzi feature from the start for Roma have gone considerably up as the Giallorossi prepare to face Frosinone on Sunday.

With only two days’ worth of training in-between their Europa League fixture with Feyenoord and their next Serie A matchday, Roma will look to give Paulo Dybala the opportunity to rest, suggests Il Messaggero.

The Argentine attacker is coming off three consecutive games as a starter and Daniele De Rossi may choose to keep him on the bench on Sunday with Baldanzi ready to replace him in the Giallorossi’s starting formation.

Angelino and El Shaarawy will also look to start for Roma, with Lukaku once again leading the attack.

Meanwhile, Evan Ndicka – who recently made his return from AFCON – is hoping to be available for next week’s return leg with Feyenoord.
