Italian giants Roma and Milan face each other in European competition for the second time in a week in the Europa League quarter-final second-leg clash between the sides on Thursday.
A week ago, Roma secured a vital 1-0 away victory at San Siro in the first leg, and the capital club will be hoping to build on that to reach the semi-final stage.
Here’s how the Roma and Milan squads are looking ahead of this tie.
Roma Team News
Key midfielder Bryan Cristante is suspended for the second leg but most of the Roma side will be fresh and raring to go for this one.
Paulo Dybala, Gianluca Mancini and Lorenzo Pellegrino are just three of the players for the weekend’s game against Udinese.
Evan Ndicka won’t be involved after an injury setback.
Key player: Roma
Most of Dybala’s goal contributions this season have come in Serie A, but he remains a major creative force for Roma.
Milan Team News
Fikayo Tomori was suspended for the first leg so he is set to return to the starting XI, as is Mike Maignan, who missed the Sassuolo game at the weekend.
Simon Kjaer is injured, so Stefano Pioli will need to decide between Tomori and Malick Thiaw to partner Matteo Gabbia.
Roma (4-3-3): Svilar; Celik, Mancini, Smalling, Spinazzola; Bove, Paredes, Pellegrini; Dybala, Lukaku, El Shaarawy.
Milan (4-2-3-1): Maignan; Calabria, Tomori, Gabbia, Hernandez; Bennacer, Reijnders; Pulisic, Loftus-Cheek, Leao; Giroud.
