Pre-match preview

Manchester United

Michael Carrick's nine-match winless run has turned Tuesday's encounter into an uncomfortable test of his authority. United followed their heavy defeat by Bournemouth with a 2-0 loss at Chelsea, where Lisandro Martínez was sent off. His suspension applies domestically, leaving him available for the European fixture, and Carrick has publicly backed the defender's commitment.

The left side of defence remains a problem. Luke Shaw is sidelined and Patrick Dorgu, despite returning to training, will not feature. Diogo Dalot is therefore a likely solution, while Leny Yoro is eligible after serving his European ban. Kobbie Mainoo could return to the starting midfield following his substitute appearance at Stamford Bridge. Bryan Mbeumo is expected to lead the attack, supported by Bruno Fernandes and Matheus Cunha. Amad trained on Monday after his withdrawal against Chelsea, though his readiness still needs confirmation.

AS Roma

Gian Piero Gasperini has a genuine selection choice despite Roma's impressive 5-2 victory at Udinese. His side scored four times before half-time, with Donyell Malen and Rodrigo Mora among the scorers, and the Dutch forward is expected to retain his central role in attack. Matías Soulé should again operate nearby, although Niccolò Pisilli provides another option for the supporting positions.

In midfield, Marten de Roon and Bryan Cristante look set to continue together while Manu Koné remains out. Gianluca Mancini is pushing to return to the back three after starting on the bench at Udinese, creating a decision involving Daniele Ghilardi. The right wing-back position is also unsettled: Nahuel Molina started the weekend game, but Emanuele Lulli and Devyne Rensch are alternatives. Pierluigi Gollini is expected to remain in goal with Mile Svilar sidelined, while Paulo Dybala and Lorenzo Pellegrini are unavailable.
