Lecce vs. Roma: Serie A Line-ups and TV Broadcast Details
As AS Roma prepares to face US Lecce in their Serie A matchup, the team is dealing with significant defensive challenges. The match will take place away from home on Tuesday evening, with kick-off scheduled for 17:00 GMT.
Lecce vs. Roma: Serie A Line-ups and TV Broadcast Details
Lecce arrives for this matchup following a commendable 1-1 draw against Juventus. Eusebio Di Francesco, their manager, is likely to maintain consistency in his lineup after that performance.
Lecce’s Expected Line-up
- Formation: 4-3-3
- Goalkeeper: Falcone
- Defenders: Perez, Gaspar, T. Gabriel, Gallo
- Midfielders: Kaba, Ramadani, Maleh
- Forwards: Pierotti, Camarda, Banda
Francesco Camarda is set to lead Lecce’s attack as the center-forward, supported by any combination of Santiago Pierotti, Konan N’Dri, Lameck Banda, or Riccardo Sottil on the wings.
Roma’s Defensive Concerns
Gian Piero Gasperini’s squad aims to bounce back following a 1-0 defeat against Atalanta. They face a defensive crisis, as key players are unavailable due to injuries and suspensions.
- Evan Ndicka is at the Africa Cup of Nations.
- Gianluca Mancini and Mario Hermoso are suspended.
This leaves Roma likely to field a makeshift defense with Daniele Ghilardi, Jan Ziolkowski, and Devyne Rensch. Artem Dovbyk remains sidelined, which could lead to Evan Ferguson starting as the center-forward. Additionally, Paulo Dybala might be given a rest in this match.
