AS Roma captain Lorenzo Pellegrini could miss his match against Juventus this Sunday as he battles the flu.
Juve are looking to maintain their good form, while Roma know they have to start winning consistently to end this period well.
Both clubs must win the game and Roma would want all of their best players available to execute their game plan.
However, Football Italia reveals that Pellegrini is suffering from the flu, which could prevent him from participating in tomorrow’s game, which would deal a heavy blow to José Mourinho’s team.
Juve FC says
Beating Roma is imperative for us as we aim to finish this season as high as possible, whether or not we recover the 15 points we lost.
The Giallorossi are one of the clubs hoping to take our place in the top four, so we should expect them to give us a chance.
It’s tempting to think that his team would weaken now that Pellegrini could miss the game, but that would be a misjudgment because soccer is a team sport.
His absence might even motivate his boys to prove a point, so we need to prepare to face the strongest Roma possible.
