Roma lodge appeal against Torino away-day ticket restrictions

Roma have named their squad for the big match at the Maradona against Napoli, which takes place less than 24 hours after the list was released. Gian Piero Gasperini's side will be without Paulo Dybala, Manu Koné, Lorenzo Pellegrini and Mile Svilar, who are all out. The club's list includes two Primavera players, Di Nunzio and Camara. Gasperini's only selection doubt is in the attacking midfield, where Bryan Cristante, Rodrigo Mora and Niccolò Pisilli are competing for a place. Pisilli is considered the likeliest to get the nod to play alongside Matías Soulé, not least because of his current form. Napoli, for their part, are getting back Rrahmani and Vergara, but will have to do without Neres, Favasuli, Buongiorno and Alisson Santos. Roma also want to end a long run against Allegri's side. They have not won away against Napoli since 2010, a wait of 16 years. That last win came on 18 December, when the decisive goal was scored by Borriello.

Roma face Antonio Allegri's Napoli at the Maradona tomorrow at 18:00 in the eighth round of Serie A, and the Italian press is warning that Allegri rarely gets big matches wrong. The head-to-head record favours the Napoli coach: 14 wins, 11 draws and just 6 defeats in previous meetings. Roma, however, arrive in strong form this season, with 5 wins and 2 draws from their first 7 matches, 16 goals scored and only 3 conceded. Napoli have already lost 5 games this season, to Inter, Como, Arsenal, Villareal and Venezia. Still, Allegri has a reputation for getting the best out of his teams in major fixtures. Last season, his Milan, who finished 5th, took 20 points from a possible 36 against the top 7 sides, 13 more than Gasperini's Roma managed. Napoli appear to have turned a corner this campaign, having lost to both Inter and Como, but the article insists that no one should lower their guard when Allegri is in charge of a big match.
