Lecce vs AS Roma – Match preview and team news

AS Roma are set to clash with Lecce in a Serie A match at the Stadio Ettore Giardiniero on Sunday. Gian Piero Gasperini's AS Roma aim to capitalize on their impressive start to the season, following their 4-0 victory over Fiorentina. Lecce, under Eusebio Di Francesco, will rely on their solid defense, with Antonino Gallo returning from injury and returning midfielder Medon Berisha preparing to make his comeback.

Willem Geubbels, a recent summer signing, is expected to lead AS Roma's attack, supported by Santiago Pierotti and Konan N’Dri. For AS Roma, Leonardo Balerdi, a new defensive signing, is likely to make his debut, joining Marten De Roon in the lineup. However, AS Roma will miss the presence of Lorenzo Pellegrini and Devyne Rensch, who are both dealing with thigh and flexor injuries respectively.

Despite their absence, Roma's other key players, Nahuel Molina and Robinio Vaz, are expected to be available for selection. Lecce will look to maintain their defensive integrity, having struggled with inconsistency in recent fixtures.
