Serie A: Cremonese vs. Roma – probable line-ups and where to watch on TV

Matias Soulé will lead the Roma attack against Jamie Vardy’s Cremonese, but Gian Piero Gasperini could pick a false nine for the Giallorossi.

It kicks off at 15:00 CET (14:00 GMT) at the Stadio Zini in Cremona.

The home side are without Michele Collocolo, Alessio Zerbin, Mikayil Faye and Faris Moumbagna, while Roma travelled to Cremona without Angelino, Paulo Dybala, Artem Dovbyk, Leon Bailey and Mario Hermoso.

Giuseppe Pezzella returns from an injury for Cremonese and is expected to get back into the starting XI right away.

Davide Nicola’s three-man defence with Filippo Terracciano, Federico Baschirotto and Matteo Bianchetti will remain untouched, while Vardy will start up front for the Grigiorossi.

Multiple sources in Italy claim that Roma coach Gasperini will pick Soulé and Lorenzo Pellegrini behind the only centre-forward available, Evan Ferguson, but Sos Fanta suggests Gasp could rest the Republic of Ireland international to play Tommaso Baldanzi as a false nine.
