Roma will be without Leonardo Spinazzola this weekend after the full-back aggravated a previous injury.

Spinazzola was replaced early in the second half against Atalanta on Wednesday, fuelling fears he had suffered a thigh injury.

However, a first round of tests confirmed the former Juventus man had only suffered a slight reoccurrence of the problem that kept him out for Roma’s first two games of the season.

The 26-year-old should only miss Sunday’s trip to Lecce in Serie A and possibly the midweek Europa League fixture with Austrian side Wolfsberger.
