Roma goalkeeper Mile Svilar will not be available to Gian Piero Gasperini until after the November international break, with his recovery from injury still progressing. The Serbian is wearing a brace on his foot while doing gym sessions as he works back to fitness. Svilar, a Serbia international and a goalkeeper who joined Roma from Benfica in July 2022, is one of the club's first-choice options between the posts. Losing him for the coming weeks means Gasperini must rely on his other goalkeepers while the recovery continues. The report comes from Forzaroma.info, which published the update on 30 October 2026 at 15:30 and includes a video from the Deltacoaching.be Instagram profile showing the goalkeeper's rehabilitation work.

Roman radio pundits have urged Roma to move quickly for Endrick, while debating the Udinese fixture and the club's attacking options. Mario Corsi (Tele Radio Stereo) said that Roma must act first, warning that AC Milan could beat them to the forward. He pointed to Roma's spending: "Dopo aver speso 60 milioni per Ramos, uno che non segna mai, se può spendere anche per questo... ecco perché dobbiamo muoverci." Corsi also claimed that Endrick would agree to join Roma if he chose the club, and he suggested Mourinho was still thinking about Roma. David Rossi (Rete Sport) raised concerns about Paulo Dybala's fitness before the international break. He said playing Dybala in the game before the break would be "una forzatura" and suggested that Matías Soulé would be used in every match, which could become a problem. Rossi also asked why Roma did not try Guaglianone in the current emergency, noting that Guaglianone had brought forwards such as Arena and Paratici but had never brought in a "mezza punta", the role where Roma are struggling. Gianluca Piacentini (Rete Sport) said that Roma now feel more confident in the strength of the squad than they did last season, when a top-four finish was essential. He said he wanted Roma to aim for first place rather than fourth, and he admitted he would now prefer AC Milan to win the derby over Inter. Lorenzo Pes (Tele Radio Stereo) expected Hermoso and Balerdi to play at Udine, and said Marten de Roon, whom he had seen declining against Cagliari, would likely start alongside Bryan Cristante with Niccolò Pisilli pushed forward. He tipped Rodrigo Mora and Santiago Castro to come off the bench. Pes said Mile Svilar would return after the break, and that Manu Koné had resumed training on the pitch to be available against Sassuolo. Of Dybala, he said: "Dipende da lui. Ma per Manchester mi sembra obiettivamente difficile." Alessio Nardo (Tele Radio Stereo) questioned whether Gasperini already had an XI in mind for Manchester and, consequently, for Udinese. He said: "Sia United che Udinese sono due panchine a fortissimo rischio, bisognerà capire se è un vantaggio o meno per noi." He added: "Io non dico che vincere a Udine domani sarebbe un'impresa, ma comunque sarebbe un grandissimo risultato per la Roma." Nando Orsi (Radio Radio) was the most confident of a Roma win, arguing that Udinese were in free fall. He said: "Questa è l'occasione giusta per la Roma... Non vedo un altro tipo di risultato oltre alla vittoria della Roma." Roberto Pruzzo (Radio Radio) warned that Roma must settle the match early, cautioning that Udinese had recovered Davis and Zaniolo and could cause problems if Roma conceded space. He added: "È una partita da prendere con le molle." Mario Mattioli (Radio Radio) argued that Udine would not be easy for Roma despite Udinese's crisis, and said a Roma win would be "un'altra piccola impresa di questo campionato." Ubaldo Righetti (Radio Romanista) said Roma were not tired against Cagliari, though Mancini may have been, and that De Roon was still effective because he worked through the lines rather than chasing opponents. Righetti said the problem was frenzy, with simple passes going astray. Daniele Lo Monaco (Radio Romanista) warned that Mora risked the same fate as Bojan, who never fulfilled the promise he showed after leaving Barcelona.

Roma return to the Stadio Olimpico to face Cagliari, coached by Pisacane, after the 1-1 draw at Napoli. Gasperini has made some changes for the match. Cagliari have had a strong start to the league season but come into the game on the back of two heavy defeats, against Monza and Bologna. Roma line up in a 3-4-2-1 formation: Gollini; Mancini, N'Dicka, Koulierakis; Lulli, De Roon, Pisilli, Molina; Soulé, Cristante; Castro. Balerdi, who scored a brace at the Maradona in Naples, is among the substitutes, alongside Vásquez, De Marzi, Rensch, Ghilardi, Mora, Wesley, Hermoso, Malen, Arena and Camara. Gasperini is in charge. Cagliari set up in a 5-4-1 formation: Caprile; Ze Pedro, Sugawara, Mina, Rodriguez, Obert; Romano, Deiola; Adopo, Fadera; Nzola. Their substitutes are Sherri, Radunovic, Kofler, Aurelio, Liteta, Sulev, Fazzini, Gagliardini, Ciervo, Maldini, Carlos, Mendy and Trepy. Pisacane is the Cagliari coach.

Roma host Cagliari at the Stadio Olimpico tonight in the ninth round of Serie A, and Gian Piero Gasperini is expected to make several changes to the side that drew 3-3 at Napoli. Koulierakis is reportedly in line to start from the first minute, and Castro is tipped to take over from Malen up front, with Malen's place reportedly under threat. Ghilardi and Balerdi are also in contention for starts in defence, while Lulli and Molina are expected on the flanks. The midweek fixture comes straight after the thrilling 3-3 draw at Napoli, and Roma will be looking to bounce back in front of their own fans and stay in touch with the top of the table. Gasperini has rotated his side for the quick turnaround. Paulo Dybala is returning to the matchday squad but is expected to begin on the bench. Mile Svilar, Manu Koné and Lorenzo Pellegrini remain unavailable. Cagliari, coached by Fabio Pisacane, will be without Winks, who is sidelined with lower back pain, while Trepy is back in contention. The probable Roma XI is Gollini; Mancini, N'Dicka, Koulierakis; Lulli, Cristante, De Roon, Molina; Soulé, Pisilli; Castro. Roma's bench is Vásquez, De Marzi, Hermoso, Balerdi, Wesley, Rensch, Di Nunzio, Camara and Malen. Cagliari are expected to line up Caprile; Sugawara, Mina, Rodríguez, Obert; Romano, Deiola; Adopo, Maldini, Fazzini; Mendy. Their bench includes Sherri, Radunović, Kofler, Zé Pedro, Aurelio, Liteta, Sulev, Massolin, Gagliardini, Trepy, Kevin Carlos, Nzola, Fadera and Ciervo. The referee is Feliciani from Teramo, assisted by Zingarelli and Fontani. Mariani is the fourth official, Ghersini is on VAR and Camplone is assistant VAR.
