during his pre-match press conference<\/a> on Saturday before Roma travels to the San Siro to face league leaders Inter on Easter Sunday.<\/p>\nIn addition to those two major absences, Roma will continue to be without Paulo Dybala, Artem Dovbyk, and Evan Ferguson.<\/p>\n
With the players available to Gasperini, there\u2019s no question about who will lead the line. It will undoubtedly be Donyell Malen. One of the two attacking midfielders trying to provide him with service will be Lorenzo Pellegrini. However, the biggest question in the lineup concerns who plays an advanced midfield role alongside Pellegrini. This decision could have a domino effect on other positions in the eleven.<\/p>\n
If Soul\u00e9 is able to go from the opening whistle, then it\u2019s likely we\u2019ll see a central midfield pairing of Bryan Cristante and Niccol\u00f3 Pisilli. If Soul\u00e9 doesn\u2019t start, then it might be Pisilli or Vaz playing in support of Malen. If it ends up being Pisilli, it creates an opening for El Aynaoui alongside Cristante.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, we tend to lean toward Devyne Rensch playing on the left side of midfield in place of the injured Wesley. Zeki \u00c7elik will take up his usual place on the right. In defense, it appears as if Mario Hermoso has the leg up on Daniele Ghilardi to complete the back three with Gianluca Mancini and Evan Ndicka.<\/p>\n
