Roma will host Sassuolo in tonight's Serie A match. The game at the Stadio Olimpico kicks off at 19.45 GMT (20.45 CET).

Rodrigo Mora and Manu Koné have been included in the starting XI to support Donyell Malen. Third-choice goalkeeper Devis Vasquez will be in goal. Manu Koné will start for the first time since the thigh injury he suffered against Real Madrid on October 14. Gianluca Mancini and Devyne Rensch are injured and will not be available. Pierluigi Gollini has not yet recovered from a back problem. Mile Svilar has been out for more than a month, so Vasquez will keep goal for a second straight match. Paulo Dybala and Lorenzo Pellegrini are still on the injury list.

Sassuolo started the season well and beat Juventus 3-2. However, the team has taken only one point in the last six weeks and conceded 10 goals in their last two defeats, against Lazio and Fiorentina. Head coach Aquilani, a former Roma player, returns to the Stadio Olimpico. Domenico Berardi, Cristian Volpato, Daniel Boloca, Ismael Koné and Fedde Leysen are injured. Kristian Thorstvedt, however, is available again.

Armand Laurienté and Sebastiano Esposito will start together for Sassuolo. Aquilani will set his team up in a new 3-5-2 formation. Former Roma player Nemanja Matic will also feature in midfield. Arijanet Muric returns in goal.
