Team News

Roma
  • Except for Marquinho, Zeman has his full squad available and is going to leave some potential starters on the bench.
  • Pjanic is in competition with Florenzi, while Tachtsidis could play in front of the defence instead of De Rossi.
  • Osvaldo is pretty certain to play, while Destro will start on the bench.
AC Milan
  • Pato and Robinho are in transfer talks and Milan are evaluating the offers, therefore the latter may not start in Rome despite his availability.
  • Pazzini should be the main striker with Boateng on his right side, unless Emanuelson plays wide and the international from Ghana acts as false nine.
  • De Sciglio and Constant will play as full-backs leaving Abate and Antonini out.

Prediction

  • Roma just ended their winning streak in a controversial match in Verona, and now they have to face Milan's furious fight back. If they were to lose, they would drop below their opponents in the table.
  • Milan are in pretty good form and can see the light at the end of the tunnel with the European qualification places not far off. The Champions League draw was tough but also a reminder of Milan's fame all around Europe, which could be a useful boost for the league.
  • Allegri knows that his team sometimes struggle in defence, so he may match Zeman's offensive style with a similar approach. El Shaarawy's work rate will be key to cover the full-back's runs on his side and then attack right back in return, while Boateng may be asked to do the same on the other side.

    excerpt from goal.com on marquinhos:
    "The young centre-back responded magnificently to the challenge of shackling Milan's potent forward line, conceding very little space in defence alongside Burdisso. Victim of a RIDICULOUS red card decision that put Roma in trouble"
