AS Roma vs VFB Stuttgart – Predicted lineup and team news | OneFootball

AS Roma are set to welcome VfB Stuttgart to their iconic Stadio Olimpico on Thursday night, as both clubs battle for vital Europa League points.

Sharing the same standings and points tally, this clash between continental contenders carries major weight for securing direct progression to the Round of 16.

The Giallorossi have turned their European fortunes around with three straight Europa League victories, bouncing back from earlier setbacks against Lyon and Viktoria Plzeň.

On the domestic front, they hold fourth place in Serie A, collecting 42 points across 21 outings with 14 triumphs and no stalemates.

AS Roma team news

Gian Piero Gasperini’s squad welcomes back crucial personnel for the upcoming fixture. Zeki Celik is fit again after dealing with a muscle strain.

That said, the Italian side grapples with notable absences. Mario Hermoso faces roughly two weeks on the sidelines, and Artem Dovbyk is still working through his rehabilitation. On a brighter note, Paulo Dybala maintains his good output, bagging a goal and an assist in the recent Torino success, guaranteeing attacking ingenuity up top.

Furthermore, striker Evan Ferguson is set for action after shaking off his latest knock. He’s already notched two strikes in five Europa League outings with Roma.

AS Roma predicted lineup

Possible AS Roma starting XI: Svilar; Mancini, Ndicka, Ghilardi; Rensch, Christante, Kone, Wesley; Pellegrini, Dybala; Ferguson.

When will the match kick off?
