Roma will face Genoa on Saturday night as the team deals with a string of injuries to crucial players. Coach Gian Piero Gasperini is set to be without five regular starters, including Paulo Dybala, Manu Koné, and Donyell Malen, as they recover from injuries sustained in recent matches. Dybala and Koné are undergoing medical assessments today, but neither is expected to feature against Genoa.

Gasperini emphasized the need for younger players to step up, stating, "Young players must help us win." This highlights the pressure on new talent to perform in the absence of established names. Emanuele Lulli is likely to return to the lineup after being benched for three consecutive games.
The match follows Roma's recent 4-3 defeat to Real Madrid in the Champions League, a loss where they had shown dominance for much of the game but suffered a late collapse. Gasperini remains hopeful that the squad's depth will allow them to cope with the ongoing injury crisis as they prepare to face Daniele De Rossi's Genoa at the Stadio Olimpico.
