Rudi Garcia has listed 24 players for his Roma squad to face Empoli, including Douglas Maicon and some expected to actually be rested.

Maicon has faced a week under scrutiny following an early return from international duty with Brazil, but has been deemed ready and fully fit for the team’s first Serie A away fixture of the season.

Speculation is that whilst the likes of Francesco Totti and Ashley Cole are included as well, they are unlikely to start on Saturday, with one eye on the team’s return to Champions League duty the following midweek.

Daniele De Rossi and Kostas Manolas, however, are expected to start at the weekend, as they will be suspended for the European tie.

Roma squad to face Empoli: Astori, Borriello, Castan, Cholevas, Cole, De Rossi, De Sanctis, Destro, Emanuelson, Florenzi, Gervinho, Iturbe, Keita, Ljajic, Lobont, Maicon, Manolas, Nainggolan, Paredes, Pjanic, Skorupski, Torosidis, Totti, Yanga-Mbiwa
