Roma will discover the dates and times of their Champions League league-phase matches today, with the first fixture between 8–10 September and the final match on 27 January. Real Madrid, Sporting CP, Lille and Slovan Bratislava will visit the Olimpico across the campaign.
Ticket availability will be severely limited. Some 40,000 supporters have already taken out cup competition season tickets, leaving fewer than 20,000 seats available across other sections—though prices are expected to be prohibitive. The club will announce sales procedures in the coming days following UEFA's release of the fixture schedule today.
Series A season-ticket holders will receive first refusal on tickets through the PNR system for friends and relatives.

Real Madrid arrive at the Stadio Olimpico having conceded an average of one goal per match. José Mourinho's side are far from watertight defensively, though their attacking threat is formidable. The Blancos present a contrasting profile: while they pose significant danger in the final third, their backline has proven a consistent weakness this season.
Roma held a training session at Trigoria on 13 October at 15:00 ahead of their next fixture against Real Madrid. Head coach Gian Piero Gasperini used the session to assess squad condition and finalise his starting lineup. Konstantinos Koulierakis has recovered from injury and is available for selection, but Bryan Cristante remains sidelined as he continues his rehabilitation from a knee injury. The session included goalkeeper work, with Devis Vásquez included in the UEFA squad list following Mile Svilar's injury. The press access portion of training concluded with the squad working on possession drills.
Mile Svilar is determined to return to action as quickly as possible after suffering a stress fracture to the fifth toe of his right foot ahead of Roma's match against Como. The goalkeeper will be sidelined for several weeks, but posted images on social media showing him working in the gym with a protective brace on his foot, alongside video of upper-body exercises. He accompanied the content with a message: "Tenere sotto controllo ciò che è possibile nonostante le battute d'arresto" — keeping control of what is possible despite setbacks. Head coach Gian Piero Gasperini acknowledged the blow Svilar's absence represents. "It is a bad setback," Gasperini said in his press conference. "It is not a displaced fracture, but it will require at least a month of recovery." Against Como, Pierluigi Gollini stepped in as substitute goalkeeper and delivered a convincing performance, offering Roma some reassurance ahead of the next fixture against Real Madrid while Gasperini awaits the return of his number one.
