    Barring there are no injuries and no major CB arrivals, my guess:

    Stekelenburg
    Piris Burdisso Castan Balzaretti
    DeRossi Pjanic Tachtsidis
    Lamela Osvaldo Destro

    Stek
    Taddei Burdisso Castan Balzaretti
    DDR Bradley Pjanic
    Lamela Osvaldo Totti

    I think Destro and Tacht will eventually be starters over Totti and Bradley though. Just not at the start.

    AS Roma
    Stekelenburg
    Pris - Burdisso - Castan - Balzaretti
    De Rossi - Tachtsidis - Pjanic
    Lamela - Osvaldo - Totti​

    Alternatively:

    Stekelenburg
    Pris - Burdisso - Castan - Balzaretti
    Florenzi - De Rossi - Pjanic
    Lamela - Osvaldo - Totti​

    I'm convinced the midfield will be one of those two.

    Destro is disqualified and can't play the opener.

    I may be lightyears behind, but why is Destro DQed?

    Piris --Burdisso---Castan--Balzaretti
    De Rossi----Tachsidis---- Pjanic
    Lamela------Osvaldo------Totti

    That's if we don't get a new quality CB to replace Burdisso. Also am I the only one bothered by the fact there is only three italian players on the starting eleven? I am all for a international team but AS Roma has always taken pride in having a good amount of Italian talent.
