Pellegrini, Dybala to return to Roma’s line-up vs Fiorentina | OneFootball

Roma are looking to improve their league record at the Franchi stadium in Florence against Fiorentina on Sunday.

Juric, who faces his pupil Raffaele Palladino, knows well that a defeat against a team in excellent form could reignite the moment of crisis.

After the victory in Europe against Dynamo Kyiv, the choice of formation for Roma seems to be oriented towards a more structured base and similar to the one deployed against Inter.

Angeliño could return to the three-man defense as a left center back, while Hermoso would remain out.

Mancini’s recovery from the fever adds solidity to the defense and allows Juric to count on a complete and well-oiled defense.

In midfield, Cristante is the candidate to regain his place in the line-up, replacing Le Fée, who has not yet reached ideal form.

In attack, Juric is considering a 3-5-2 to bring Dybala closer to Dovbyk, reducing the Argentine’s defensive load and maximizing his ability to serve balls in depth.

This advanced position could create more opportunities for the Ukrainian center forward, who was often isolated in the match against Dynamo.

The understanding between Dybala and Pellegrini will be fundamental: the two had orchestrated the most dangerous action in Europe, before Shomurodov’s final error, and their talent will be crucial in breaking down the opposing defense, writes Corriere dello Sport.
