Roma’s main uncertainty in facing Manchester City appears to be over Morgan De Sanctis’ availability between the sticks.
The goalkeeper has been a doubt for this midweek fixture after struggling with muscle discomfort picked up at the weekend.
Rudi Garcia confirmed that only assessments made after final training would determine if he can start tonight’s Champions League match at the City of Manchester Stadium.

The goalkeeper has been a doubt for this midweek fixture after struggling with muscle discomfort picked up at the weekend.
Rudi Garcia confirmed that only assessments made after final training would determine if he can start tonight’s Champions League match at the City of Manchester Stadium.
Il Tempo report that it is a situation that has Lukasz Skorupski on standby to fill in, in one of only two positions seen as uncertain for this evening.
The other is believed to be at left-back, with Vasilis Torosidis believed in contention to displace Ashley Cole and keep out Jose Holebas.
Meanwhile, the rest of the XI looks set in place, to be led by an attacking trio of Gervinho, Francesco Totti and Alessandro Florenzi.
Probable line-ups
Manchester City: Hart; Zabaleta, Kompany, Demichelis, Kolarov; Milner, Fernandinho, Yaya Toure, Silva; Aguero, Dzeko
Roma: De Sanctis (Skorupski); Maicon, Manolas, Yanga-Mbiwa, Torosidi; Keita, Pjanic, Nainggolan; Florenzi, Totti, Gervinho
