Serie A: Fiorentina-Roma, probable line-ups

Andrea Belotti returns to Fiorentina‘s starting XI against his former club Roma, who are expected to rely on Romelu Lukaku and Paulo Dybala again.

It kicks off at 19:45 GMT at the Stadio Franchi.

Both sides played in the Europa League on Thursday and will return to the pitch on the same day next week, so Vincenzo Italiano and Daniele De Rossi are still making their final assessments.

The Tuscans are without the injured Oliver Christensen and Christian Kouamé, while Lucas Beltran is suspended. Arthur is favourite over Maxime Lopez in central midfield, where he should join Alfred Duncan.

Lucas Martinez Quarta is favourite over Luca Ranieri in central defence.

De Rossi also has a few line-up doubts. Rasmus Kristensen is suspended, and Tammy Abraham, Chris Smalling, and Renato Sanchez are injured.

DDR may not rotate too much following a comfortable 4-0 victory over Roberto De Zerbi’s Brighton earlier this week, so Dybala and Lukaku are expected to start in attack again.

Evan N’Dicka is favourite over Diego Llorente and Zaki Celik could start against as a right-back given that Rick Karsdorp is still not fully fit.

Fiorentina-Roma: probable line-ups

Fiorentina (4-2-3-1): Terracciano; Kayode, Milenkovic, Martinez Quarta, Biraghi; Arthur, Duncan; Sottil, Bonaventura, Nico Gonzalez; Belotti.

Roma (4-3-3): Svilar; Celik, Mancini, N’Dicka, Angeliño; Cristante, Paredes, Pellegrini; Dybala, Lukaku, El Shaarawy.
