Roma comes to this game unmotivated as a result of an away goalless draw against Chievo, thus missing out the chance of taking the lead of the Italian championship. In this home game, coach Eusebio Di Francesco should keep the team in 4-3-3 with Dzeko being the most offensive reference of the home team: this player is the team's top scorer with 8 goals scored. However, it is important to emphasize that the home team presents great quality in the offensive set pieces, finalization and aerial game. For this game, the coach still does not have Karsdorp and Defrel, both injured.

Confirmed Lineup: Alisson, Alessandro Florenzi, Aleksandar Kolarov, Konstantinos Manolas, Federico Fazio, Lorenzo Pellegrini, Radja Nainggolan, Edin Džeko, Patrik Schick, Diego Perotti.
Coach: D. De Rossi.

Analysis Cagliari

The away team is currently in the 14th position of the league, with 17 points won, after 5 wins, 2 draws and 9 losses. In the penultimate match, they tied in an away match against Bologna, by (1‑1). In the last match, they tied in a home match against Sampdoria, by (2‑2).

In the last 8 away league matches Cagliari has a record of 2 wins, 1 draw and 5 losses, so they have won 7 points out of 24 possible. In their away matches there are a few frequent results: at half‑time 2‑0 (3 out of 8 matches) and after the 90' 3‑0 (3 out of 8 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 9 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition.

Cagliari heads into this match with a 2-2 draw against Sampdoria, adding the third straight game without a win in the league: the goals were scored by Pavoletti and Diego Farias. In this away game, manager Diego López should opt for a more defensive strategy with a low block, exploiting the best of its opponent's back: João Pedro is very fast and excellent in transporting the ball to the attack. Unlike Rome, the away team exhibits some difficulty in the aerial game. It seems that the coach has in doubt for this match Luca Crosta, Melchiorri and Farago.

Confirmed Lineup: Alessio Cragno, Gregory van der Wiel, Fabio Pisacane, Marco Andreolli, Filippo Romagna, Simone Padoin, Artur Ioniță, Nicolò Barella, João Pedro, Luca Cigarini, Leonardo Pavoletti.
