Roma will return their attention to the league and the fight to remain in the top 4 after the club was eliminated by Liverpool in the Champions League semifinal. For their match against Cagliari, coach Eusebio Di Francesco will be deploying a 4-2-3-1 formation that the giallorossi tried out in training. Pellegrini is unable to start the match due to soreness in his groin, and Strootman will also not be risked due to his rib cage injury. Alisson will start in goal and Manolas and Fazio will pair in central defense, Bruno Peres and Kolarov will start at fullback. Gonalons and De Rossi will play in midfield behind the Under-Nainggolan-El Shaarawy trio, while Edin Dzeko will play at striker. Here is the probable starting lineup:
Roma (4-2-3-1): Alisson, Peres, Manolas, Fazio, Kolarov; Gonalons, De Rossi; Under, Nainggolan, El Shaarawy; Dzeko.
