What is the story about?
On the table, Roma’s 3-1 start to the new Serie A season, the first under new manager Gian Piero Gasperini, is off to a fine start. However, the high-flying attack we anticipated when the season began has yet to appear in the hallowed halls of Trigoria, causing some impatience among Roma fans. While Gasperini continues to iron out the kinks in his new squad, today the focus shifts to the Europa League, where the Giallorossi begin their campaign against Ligue 1 side Nice.
With Roma beginning a stretch
of multiple matches per week, Gasperini has dipped into his bench for todays EL opener, giving starts to Artem Dovbyk and Kostas Tsimikas alongside regular or semi-regular starters like Stephan El Shaarawy, Matías Soulé and Neil El Aynaoui.
