Roma defender Maicon will undergo a scan today to determine the extent of a thigh injury, but is expected to miss Verona on Saturday.
The Giallorossi will get Serie A 2015-16 underway when they meet the Butei at Stadio Bentegodi at the weekend, but the full-back is a doubt after missing training for the past two days.
The Brazilian felt discomfort in his thigh before Monday’s session, and Il Tempo reports that he will have a scan today to determine the severity of the injury.

The Giallorossi will get Serie A 2015-16 underway when they meet the Butei at Stadio Bentegodi at the weekend, but the full-back is a doubt after missing training for the past two days.
The Brazilian felt discomfort in his thigh before Monday’s session, and Il Tempo reports that he will have a scan today to determine the severity of the injury.
The newspaper believes early indications are good, and Maicon is not thought to have suffered a muscular tear.
However, it’s unlikely the 34-year-old will be risked against Verona, with Juventus visiting Olimpico in Week 2.
