Roma’s statement signing Paulo Dybala is expected to take to the stage from the start in today’s Serie A clash against Salernitana.
Jose Mourinho’s side face off against the Granata at 19.45 UK time at the Stadio Arechi in Salerno.
Roma only have one absence heading into their Serie A opener; Ebrima Darboe is out with a long-term injury after undergoing a knee operation last month.
Things are a little more tough for Salernitana, who are unable to count on the injured Matteo Lovato, Pawel Jarozynski and Emil Bohinen. Ivan Radovanovic and Domagoj Bradaric are both also in doubt for the match.
Roma had little trouble in their two meetings with Salernitana last season, winning the away match 4-0 and the home match 2-1. They’ll be hoping to continue their dominance against the Campania side this evening.
Salernitana vs Roma – probable lineups
Salernitana (3-5-2): Sepe; Gyomber, Fazio, Pirola; Candreva, Coulibaly, Capezzi, Kastanos, Mazzocchi; Bonazzoli, Ribery.
