Team news

Casemiro will be expected to start for Real after initially being left on the bench for the weekend trip to Bilbao, with Dani Ceballos struggling to deputise for the Brazilian midfielder.

Lopetegui could still shuffle his pack with Real facing the second of six games with an 18-day fixture pile-up.

In terms of the visitors, they welcomed Alessandro Florenzi back from injury against Chievo following a few weeks on the sidelines, and the versatile full-back is in line to start at the Bernabeu.

Edin Dzeko will lead the line, 18 months on from netting a hat-trick in Roma’s 4-0 success at Villarreal in the Europa League last 32 – the only time his side have avoided defeat in their last five visits to Spain.

De Eusebio has no fresh injury concerns, in fact, so he may well go with the same XI that played out a 2-2 draw with Chievo at the weekend.
