The lineups have not been announced yet
Daniele De Rossi has called on his tired squad to overcome their two-game losing streak and win their Europa League semi-final first leg against Bayer Leverkusen on Thursday.
Roma have lost their last two games in Serie A, including a 2-1 defeat to local rivals Lazio on Saturday.
De Rossi is expected to make changes to his team for the game against Leverkusen, with Edin Dzeko and Stephan El Shaarawy likely to come into the starting lineup.
Leverkusen are also in poor form, having drawn their last two games in the Bundesliga.
However, the German side will be confident of getting a positive result in Rome, having won their last two away games in the Europa League.
The match is evenly poised, with both teams having a chance of reaching the final.
Roma will be looking to use their home advantage to get a win, while Leverkusen will be hoping to snatch a draw.
