Jose Mourinho remains behind Tammy Abraham in the Europa League playoffs against Noah Okafor's RB Salzburg, with his favorite Roma squad including Paulo Dybala and Lorenzo Pellegrini.
The first leg kicks off at 17:45 GMT at Red Bull's Arena in Salzburg.
Giallorossi won the team where he finished third in the Champions League, behind Chelsea and Milan in this round, and in the group he finished second.
Leonardo Spinazzola is still injured, and Rick Kalsdorp is frozen, but Mourinho has made it clear that this is his starting line-up in a competition with no room for rotation.
Stephan El Shaarawy was Spinatthura's first choice on the left flank. RB Salzburg have held Milan and Chelsea to a draw in the Champions League but have not won a European round of 16 since 2019.
Noah Okafor is the star of his team's teenage striker, Benjamin Sesco, who is on vacation this weekend.
Dijon Cameri and Brian Okor are injured, while Dauda Guindo, Samson Tijani, Lawrence Agiekum, Justin Omoregy, and Karim Konate are absent from the Europa League squad.
RB Salzburg:
Corn; Dedic, Solet, Pavlovic, Ulmer Capaldo, Gourna-Douath, Seiwald, Sour; Fernando Okafor
Rome:
Rui Patricio; Mancini, Smalling, Ibanez. Zarevski, Cristante, Matic, and El Shaarawy Dybala, Pellegrini. Abraham
