Roma have a serious player shortage going into that Empoli meeting, as Edin Dzeko, Federico Fazio and Aleksandar Kolarov are suspended, with Kostas Manolas, Daniele De Rossi, Lorenzo Pellegrini, Cengiz Under and Javier Pastore injured.

It will be Coach Claudio Ranieri's debut after the dismissal of Eusebio Di Francesco.
