Roma are in crisis and hovering near the relegation zone, so Romelu Lukaku and Paulo Dybala try to dig Jose Mourinho out of a hole against high-flying Frosinone.
It kicks off at the Stadio Olimpico at 19.45 UK time (18.45 GMT).
The Giallorossi are in full-blown crisis with only one Serie A victory and a total five points from seven rounds, culminating in Thursday night’s 4-1 defeat at Genoa.
Diego Llorente joined Chris Smalling, Renato Sanches, Tammy Abraham and Marash Kumbulla on the treatment table.
Here they face another newly-promoted team in Frosinone, who only lost the opening weekend to Napoli and are playing well under ex-Roma coach Eusebio Di Francesco.
Matias Soule and Walid Cheddira are impressing on loan from Juventus and Napoli respectively, but Kaio Jorge, Pol Lirola, Francesco Gelli and Abdou Harroui are not fully fit.
Marvin Cuni is chosen to lead the attack.
Roma: Rui Patricio; Mancini, Cristante, Ndicka; Karsdorp, Bove, Paredes, Spinazzola; Pellegrini, Dybala; Lukaku
Frosinone: Turati; Monterisi, Romagnoli, Okoli, Marchizza; Oyono, Barrenechea, Mazzitelli; Soulé, Cuni, Baez
