Team news: Zaniolo starts but Dzeko is absent


Nicolo Zaniolo makes his third career start of his career - and the second against Real Madrid - as Roma return to Champions League action on Tuesday.

The Giallorossi can qualify for the last-16 of the competition with a victory against the reigning competition holders.

Zaniolo starts in midfield, while there is no place for Edin Dzeko in the squad - as Patrik Schick once again starts in attack.

Alessandro Florenzi captains the side.
