The Giallorossi are without Francesco Totti, Mohamed Salah, Leandro Paredes and Alessandro Florenzi, but Kevin Strootman is available after his two-match ban was revoked.

Stephan El Shaarawy is not expected to start against his former club, so Bruno Peres and Emerson Palmieri take wing-back roles supporting Diego Perotti, Radja Nainggolan and Edin Dzeko.

Milan have problems to contend with, as Carlos Bacca and Giacomo Bonaventura joined the absentee list with Davide Calabria, Riccardo Montolivo and suspended Juraj Kucka.

According to the latest reports, Bertolacci will take the midfield spot, making his first appearance since a five-minute spell on August 21.

Pasalic also starts with Manuel Locatelli in a very young middle of the park.

The other change is in the trident attack, where Honda is chosen ahead of M’Baye Niang to partner Gianluca Lapadula and Suso.

Roma: Szczesny; Manolas, Fazio, Rüdiger; Peres, De Rossi, Strootman, Emerson; Nainggolan; Perotti, Dzeko
