Getting back to winning ways immediately: this is the imperative for Roma on the eve of the Olimpico match against Viktoria Plzen, to avoid complicating their European campaign and prepare for the double-header against Sassuolo and Parma, which, with the results in hand, could put the Giallorossi back on top.

Three games in seven days require rotation, something Gasperini hasn’t been happy with so far, as the second string hasn’t always held up to the same level.

There are signs of a revolution: on the left, Leggo writes, Wesley has convinced, with Angelino still sidelined with asthmatic bronchitis and muscle aches; on the right, one between Celik and Rensch, while Ziolkowski is likely to feature at the centre of the defense.

El Aynaoui is likely to feature in midfield.

Moreover, Leon Bailey is expected to make his first starting appearance for the Giallorossi.
