“It is not a fundamental match, as that was the first one, but it is a huge challenge with so many champions on one side and the other,” Gervinho told Sky Sport Italia.

“We have a great attack with very fast and technical players, plus an extraordinary figure like Francesco Totti. It is always a pleasure to play with him.

“We will try to move around a lot up front and try to make the most of Totti’s passes.”

There was another boost with news Manchester City drew 2-2 at CSKA Moscow, meaning the Giallorossi can break further away in Group E.

Roma crushed CSKA 5-1 in their opening tie with Gervinho bagging a brace, then earned a 1-1 result in Manchester.
