“The win over Frosinone was crucial, now we have to keep going with our next test tomorrow,” said Spalletti.

“Di Francesco is one of the Coaches who have made Italian football more attractive with his Sassuolo side.

“Sassuolo, along with Fiorentina, Empoli and Napoli, have made an important contribution to raising the bar in our football.

“I’d like to congratulate Di Francesco on his work and will do so tomorrow in person.

“Dzeko suffered a heavy knock against Frosinone and won’t be involved tomorrow. Maicon has also suffered a setback and he’ll be assessed ahead of the match.

“Totti had some pain in his glute muscles earlier. We’ll make a decision now as to whether we’ll take him or not. I hope he makes it.

“Diego Perotti can operate in several positions and that’s always useful for any team. I’m happy to have him available, just like Ervin Zukanovic.

“El Shaarawy is better suited to playing out wide because he can easily turn things around.

“In the absence of Dzeko and Totti we have to think of something else up front. But we have Sadiq available and he saves his best football for match day. Then we have other solutions, of course but I can’t say everything.”
