Roma faces Turin and by winning has the opportunity to earn points on at least two direct competitors.
With Atalanta next opponent of the Giallorossi.
A chance to stay hooked to the Champions League train and get to Christmas in the best possible shape.
The goal, then, for Paulo Fonseca is clear: "We must always keep our ambition high. For us the numbers do not matter, what is important is the next match and the next is with Torino".
So woe to underestimate the opponent despite the last grenade place.
"The ranking does not reflect their quality. They are strong, I am sure it will be a difficult match against a very organized team that always wants to play".
The Roma coach, however, will make two or three changes compared to Bologna and return to take it out on the calendar, with Roma never on the pitch on Monday despite having often played on Thursdays.
"I don't understand why everyone has to play today and we don't. So it becomes difficult to recover since we will have even less than 72 hours before the next match", the coach's controversy.
To come to the rescue of the technician there are recoveries in the infirmary (Mancini and Kumbulla) and the return of Pedro from disqualification.
"I don't want to change much, we have to be careful of Karsdorp, Cristante is missing. We will vary 2-3 players - he explains -.
Kumbulla is fine, he has no injuries. Mancini and Smalling are ready to play, let's see who will be there".
To beat Torino Fonseca will rely on the now consolidated 3-4-2-1 with Fazio, Smalling and Ibanez in defense.
Furthermore, the goalkeeper's doubt is dissolved: Pau Lopez will play given Mirante's not at the top condition.
Bruno Peres, on the other hand, will take Karsdorp's place on the right, while Spinazzola will be confirmed on the left.
In the middle, Pellegrini relegates alongside Veretout, with Pedro and Mkhitaryan behind Dzeko who also collects the compliments of his coach.
Fonseca, in fact, to those who asked if Edin like Lukaku could be included among the top 5 strikers in Europe replied with a joke: "For me he, Borja and Mkhitaryan are better than Romelu".
