Serie A official line-ups: Roma vs. Juventus

Roma are seeking an eighth straight Serie A victory with Artem Dovbyk and Matias Soulé, while Igor Tudor revamps Juventus with Kenan Yildiz and Dusan Vlahovic.

It kicks off at the Stadio Olimpico at 19.45 UK time (18.45 GMT).

This has become a head-to-head for European ambitions, because only three points separate them in fifth and seventh place.

Claudio Ranieri has well and truly transformed Roma and they are the form team in Italy right now after seven consecutive victories.

Paulo Dybala is out for the rest of the season, with Saud Abdulhamid and Devyne Rensch also injured, and Alexis Saelemaekers suspended.

Zeki Celik returns to the starting XI after an injury on international duty, but ex-Juventus youth team player Matias Soulé and Stephan El Shaarawy support Dovbyk.

Lorenzo Pellegrini is not able to start following a knock to his calf in training, but has recovered enough to sit on the bench.

Juventus also rebooted since Tudor replaced Thiago Motta, changing to a three-man defence and dropping Randal Kolo Muani to focus on Vlahovic instead.

He’s only had one game in charge so far, the 1-0 victory over Genoa.

However, Federico Gatti’s fracture forces a change in defence, with Gleison Bremer, Juan Cabal, Arek Milik and Mattia Perin also out of action.

Andrea Cambiaso and Douglas Luiz are back in the squad, but only ready for the bench.
