There are conflicting reports over Morgan De Sanctis’ chances of returning in time to an otherwise relatively unchanged Roma to face Juventus.
The 37-year-old sat out the Giallorossi’s Champions League draw at Manchester City on Tuesday evening having not recovered in time from a weekend thigh injury.
The Gazzetta dello Sport suggest that this issue has the goalkeeper unlikely to recover in time for Sunday’s top-of-the-table clash with Juventus and that Lukas Skorupski will deputise again.
Tuttosport, however, lead assertions to the contrary and say medical staff in the capital are confident De Sanctis will recover in time to start.
Meanwhile, early team speculation for Rudi Garcia’s side is that there will be few changes to the starting XI that drew in Manchester.
It may be that only Ashley Cole is changed at left-back for Jose Holebas or Vasilis Torosidis and that Juan Iturbe will come in for Alessandro Florenzi.
