Squad list: Perotti returns as Luca Pellegrini prepares for first start


Diego Perotti returns to the squad for Saturday's Serie A trip to face Empoli, as Roma look to make it four wins in a row.

The Argentine winger has been sidelined for the last three games, but could be available to coach Eusebio Di Francesco for the game at the Stadio Carlo Castellani - which gets underway at 20:30 CEST.

Javier Pastore and Aleksandar Kolarov are the two notable absentees for the match - with Kolarov rested for the contest after playing against both Lazio and Viktoria Plzen with a broken bone in his foot.

During Friday's pre-match press conference, Di Francesco confirmed that - barring any late complications - Edin Dzeko and Luca Pellegrini will both start the match. It will be the latter man's first-ever start for his boyhood club.
