2026-2027 Serie A: Torino vs. Roma, probable lineups

Torino vs. Roma is a match for Matchday 4 of the Serie A season, scheduled for 6:30 p.m. on Monday at the Olimpico Grande Torino. Thanks to their victory in Florence, the Granata have secured their first three points following losses to Milan and Sassuolo; the Giallorossi have a perfect record and are aiming for their fourth straight win to solidify their position at the top of the standings. Gasperini’s team is coming off a draw in the Champions League in Istanbul against Fenerbahçe.
Abate won’t be able to count on Adams: Giovanni Simeone is expected to start up front, even if he’s not at his best, alongside Vlasic. Fortini and Cacciamani will once again start on the wings, with Gineitis, Mandragora, and Fitz-Jim in midfield.
Malen remains the focal point of Roma’s attack, with Dybala and Soulé behind him. Gasperini faces a dilemma in midfield due to Koné’s less-than-perfect condition; Pisilli could start in his place alongside Cristante. Wesley and either Lulli or Molina will play on the wings.
Torino vs. Roma: Probable Lineups
TORINO (3-5-2): Perri; Comuzzo, Coco, Comert; Fortini, Gineitis, Mandragora, Fitz-Jim, Cacciamani; Vlasic, Simeone. Coach: Abate
ROMA (3-4-2-1): Svilar; Balerdi, Ndicka, Hermoso; Lulli, Cristante, Pisilli, Wesley; Dybala, Soulé; Malen. Head Coach: Gasperini
Gasperini praised Malen at a press conference: “He has extraordinary stats—well beyond the norm. We’ve played many matches now, and the numbers speak for themselves, especially given the circumstances and quality of his performances. When we signed him, I knew he was an important player, but here we’ve gone even further.” Balerdi could start from the 1st minute: “He did something remarkable at Marseille; he’s no spring chicken. We knew we were bringing in a top-tier player. If we get into the whole hierarchy thing—where if one plays, the other becomes a reserve—it doesn’t work that way. In teams competing in the Champions League, there are multiple starters.”
