“Roma and Juventus in decisive clash: Everything you need to know.”

The anticipation is high for the big clash between Roma and Juventus, a duel that promises to be decisive in the fight for qualification for the Champions League. With only four points separating the two teams, Roma, sitting in fourth place in the table, is determined to hold its ground while Juventus, in sixth, is struggling to turn around its poor form. This match, which will take place this Sunday night, is more than just a game; it is a battle for survival in the elite of European football.

Paulo Dybala and Gleison Bremer are back in training and are expected to make their much-anticipated recovery. However, the news is not as good for Dybala, who, despite having trained with the team, seems unlikely to start the match. The same cannot be said for Donyell Malen, who is set to be a driving force in Roma’s attack, following a convincing 3-0 victory over Cremonese and remaining unbeaten in the last eight matches, both in domestic and international competitions.

Juventus, on the other hand, is going through a turbulent period. After three games without a win in Serie A, including significant defeats against Como and eternal rival Inter, the Turin team has also been eliminated from the Champions League, succumbing to an aggregate defeat of 7-5 against Galatasaray. The pressure is mounting on coach Luciano Spalletti, who urgently needs a victory to lift his team’s morale.

Roma’s defense is facing some difficulties, with Mario Hermoso injured, meaning Daniele Ghilardi is expected to keep his place in the defensive trio, alongside Gianluca Mancini and Evan Ndicka. In contrast, Juventus is likely to line up with a flat defense, with Gleison Bremer seemingly fit to return to the starting eleven. However, the absence of captain Manuel Locatelli, suspended, will force Spalletti to adapt the midfield, where Teun Koopmeiners is expected to partner with Khephren Thuram.

The probable line-ups for this clash are as follows:

**Roma (3-4-2-1)**: Svilar; Ghilardi, Mancini, Ndicka; Celik, Kone, Cristante, Wesley; Pisilli, Pellegrini; Malen.

**Juventus (4-2-3-1)**: Perin; Kalulu, Bremer, Kelly, Cambiaso; Thuram, Koopmeiners; Conceicao, McKennie, Yildiz; David.
