Mile Svilar - Makes five saves in victory Svilar recorded five saves and allowed two goals in Monday's 3-2 victory over Torino.

Impact Svilar was at the heart of Roma's defensive effort during their 3-2 victory over Torino on Monday. He rebuffed five Torino attempts on goal, allowed one goal from open play and was saddled with an own goal by teammate Dean Huijsen late in the match. Since Svilar has seemingly taken over the goalkeeper's gloves from Rui Patricio, he's produced 20 saves, allowed four goals and produced one clean sheet over four matches. Roma and Svilar will next have to defend their net versus a Monza attack on Saturday that ranks in the bottom half of Serie A, having scored 27 times over 26 matches.

Evan N Dicka - Comes off bench in Feyenoord game N'Dicka (AFCON/illness) had five clerances, committed one foul and was booked in 35 minutes in Thursday's win on PKs against Feyenoord.

Impact N'Dicka was inserted after Diego Llorente was forced to bow out due to a head injury and played the final stretch of the game and overtime, looking reasonably well. He has good chances of being in the XI against Torino on Monday.

Impact Llorente has yet to be discharged after spending the night at the clinic and will likely be forced to miss some time even if the situation doesn't appear too serious. Evan N'Dicka and Dean Huijsen are the next men up in the back.

Evan N Dicka - Good to go for Feyenoord game N'Dicka "isn't 100 percent and has had the flu after coming back, but he will be called up against Feyenoord on Thursday," coach Daniele De Rossi informed.

Impact N'Dicka missed an extra game after returning from AFCON due to an illness, but he has shaken it off and will resume being an option midweek. He's unlikely to get major minutes right away, but he'll be in the mix with Diego Llorente, Gianluca Mancini, and Dean Huijsen in the next few games.

Edoardo Bove - Unavailable Thursday Bove will be suspended against Feyenoord on Thursday due to yellow-card accumulation.

Impact Bove had started six of the club's seven Europa League matches in which he registered one goal on five shots (one on target), two crosses (one accurate) and 19 tackles. Bryan Cristante figures to remain in the starting XI with Bove unavailable after having started against Frosinone on Sunday.

Gianluca Mancini - Two-way impact in win Mancini assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 3-0 victory against Frosinone. In addition, he was given a y...

Impact Mancini created a chance for the second week in a row while extending his streaks of making one interception and multiple clearances to four games. He has started every game when available and figures to be crucial at the heart of defense for Roma against Feyenoord next time out.

Leandro Paredes - Great form continues in win Paredes scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and two corners in Sunday's 3-0 victory against Frosinone.

Impact Paredes has put in some of his best performances of the season in the past four weeks with two goal involvements, five chances created, six tackles won and 11 clearances during that span. He is one of the first names on the team sheet at the moment and heads into a midweek clash with Feyenoord in a rich vein of form.

Impact Azmoun had been restricted to substitute appearances before this match and took his chance in the starting XI with aplomb, marking his performance with a season high in shots and chances created. He may start to see more minutes in the weeks ahead on the back of this display.

Mile Svilar - Massive in goal Svilar registered seven saves and allowed zero goals in Sunday's 3-0 win over Frosinone.

Impact Svilar made a season-high seven saves as he kept his first clean sheet in Serie A this season. He has largely played second fiddle to Rui Patricio this season but this marked his first time starting consecutive games, signifying a change of the guard may be in order under new manager Daniele De Rossi.

Evan N Dicka - Still out Sunday N'Dicka hasn't been called up for Sunday's match versus Frosinone, Roma relayed.

Impact N'Dicka returned to practice, but the team will give him more a few more days to rest and recover after significant time away due to the African Cup of Nations.

FEBRUARY 17 • ROTOWIRE

Evan N Dicka - Reports back to his team N'Dicka (international duty) has resumed training with the group ahead of Sunday's game versus Frosinone, Roma announced.

Impact N'Dicka is back into the fold after a successful AFCON with the Ivory Coast that forced him to miss the last seven club games. The coach and the scheme changed while he was away, so he'll have to fight for a spot in the back with Gianluca Mancini, Marcos Llorente, Dean Huijsen and Chris Smalling unless the new gaffer decides to go back to a three-man line since he has more men now. He was a staple of the formation before the competition, tallying 25 tackles, 12 interceptions and 48 clearances in 20 starts, contributing to six clean sheets.

FEBRUARY 17 • ROTOWIRE

Bryan Cristante - Subs in late versus Feyenoord Cristante (back) had two clearances and two touches in three minutes in Thursday's 1-1 draw with Feyenoord.

Impact Cristante dropped to the bench due to an ailment and logged just a handful of minutes. His injury wasn't too worrisome, so he'll likely be back in the XI over Edoardo Bove against Frosinone on Sunday. He has tallied four off-target shots, two key passes, three tackles (two won) and five clearances in his last four games.

Bryan Cristante - On bench Thursday Cristante (back) is on the bench for Thursday's matchup against Feyenoord.

Impact Cristante's latest injury does not seem to be too serious, as the midfielder is on the bench Thursday, just a few days after going down against Inter in the club's most recent contest. However, they seem to be taking his return cautiously by placing him on the bench, as he has been a regular starter most of the season, only missing out on one start all season when available up to this point. He will most likely return to the starting XI for the weekend to face Frosinone on Sunday.

FEBRUARY 15 • ROTOWIRE

Bryan Cristante - Available for Feyenoord game Cristante (back) traveled to Rotterdam for Thursday's match with the rest of the team, Sky Italy relayed.

Impact Cristante worked on the side for a couple of days due to back pain, but he was a full-go on the eve of the game and has been called up. While he'll be an option, there's still a chance he'll be managed, with Edoardo Bove or Houssem Aoaur taking his place in the XI.
