Form, tactics and important team news

Roma entered the international break joint-top of the table with Inter and Lazio, collecting 13 points from five matches. Gian Piero Gasperini’s team remained unbeaten, scoring 14 goals and conceding only three. Their latest game produced a dramatic 2-2 draw with defending champions Inter, although Roma may be disappointed after letting a two-goal advantage disappear.

Gasperini’s direct, energetic football has delivered an excellent start, but the break created several problems. Captain Bryan Cristante is doubtful because of back trouble and inflammation in his right knee, with Marten de Roon ready to cover in midfield. Lorenzo Pellegrini has improved his fitness at Trigoria and could return, although a full match may come too soon.

Donyell Malen and Wesley reportedly suffered injuries on international duty, while Artem Dovbyk faces a late test. Matias Soulé, Santiago Castro and Leonardo Balerdi are also returning from long overseas trips only three days before the game. Roma’s starting team may therefore look stronger on paper than it does in terms of energy.

Como are only three points behind the leaders after three wins, one draw and one defeat. Cesc Fàbregas oversaw a five-game unbeaten sequence in all competitions before the 2-0 loss to Frosinone. His side should try to control possession, build patiently and attack the spaces around Roma’s aggressive press.

Moise Kean is a major doubt after leaving the Italy camp early, while Nico Paz could be protected following international travel. Dele Alli’s first inclusion in the matchday squad offers an interesting creative option, and Jayden Addai is fully fit. With Como’s squad valued at €568.15m compared with Roma’s €498.40m, the hosts have enough depth to make changes without losing too much quality.
