The Giallorossi have four matches remaining and with draws for Como and Juve over the weekend, Roma can move up the table and within striking distance of a top four finish.
A win on Monday against Fiorentina at the Olimpico and Roma would move ahead of Como into fifth place and within a point of Juventus for Champions League qualification. After getting Wesley and Paulo Dybala back from injury last week, Gasperini will be able to welcome Manu Koné back into the fold for this match. “Kone has recovered, while Dybala had already made a full recovery last week and played for a part of the game.
They have done even better these past few days, so they will both be available on Monday. Friedkin’s presence is a clear sign: the owners are starting to work not only on the end of the season, which is our priority right now, but also on long-term planning. ” With the return of Koné, only Lorenzo Pellegrini, Evan Ferguson, and Artem Dovbyk remain unavailable through injury for this match.
Meanwhile, Neil El Aynaoui will miss out through yellow card suspension. And Koné is being tipped to start in his first game back in the central midfield alongside Bryan Cristante. This would push Niccoló Pisilli to the bench.
