Due to injuries to Artem Dovbyk and Evan Ferguson, Roma finds itself limited in attack. While Evan Ndicka is back from AFCON, Tommaso Baldanzi, Neil El Aynaoui, Pierluigi Gollini, and Lorenzo Pellegrini remain unavailable, with Gianluca Mancini also serving a suspension.
On the other hand, Torino will be without Cristiano Biraghi, Ivan Ilic, Marcus Pedersen, and Zanos Savva.
