Team news: Andressa starts final


After proving her fitness during last weekend's game against Napoli, Andressa Alves starts as Roma Women face AC Milan in the Coppa Italia final on Sunday night.

Coach Betty Bavagnoli makes just that one change from what has been her preferred line-up over the last few weeks of the season - as Brazil international Andressa replaces Agnese Bonfantini, with Lindsey Thomas shifting over to a wider attacking role.

That means Elisa Bartoli captains her childhood club in what is the Giallorosse's first-ever cup final appearance.

Elena Linari and Allyson Swaby form the defensive fulcrum, while Spaniard Paloma Lazaro leads the line.

The game at the Mapei Stadium gets underway at 20:30 CEST - fans can watch it live on Roma TV+!
