Serie A Preview: Roma vs Parma and Atalanta vs Empoli – Starting Lineups and Broadcast Information

Sunday’s Serie A action features Roma taking on Parma in the early kickoff, while Atalanta looks to reclaim the top spot against Empoli later in the day.

Roma vs Parma

The Stadio Olimpico will host Roma’s clash with Parma at 12:30 CET. Despite Roma’s precarious position just above the relegation zone, a full house is expected. Manager Claudio Ranieri has nearly a full squad available, with only Bryan Cristante sidelined. The main selection dilemma is in attacking midfield, where Stephan El Shaarawy is favored over Lorenzo Pellegrini.

Parma travels to Rome without several injured players, including Estevez, Bernabé, Kowalski, Circati, Charpentier, Osorio, and Valenti.

Projected Lineups:

Roma (3-4-2-1): Svilar; Mancini, Hummels, Ndicka; Saelemaekears, Koné, Paredes, Angelino; Dybala, El Shaarawy; Dovbyk

Parma (4-2-3-1): Suzuki; Hainaut, Delprato, Balogh, Valeri; Sohm, Keita; Man, Hernani, Cancellieri; Bonny

Atalanta vs Empoli

Atalanta aims to reclaim the Serie A lead when they face Empoli at 18:00 CET. Manager Gian Piero Gasperini is likely to start Charles De Ketelaere, Mateo Retegui, and Ademola Lookman in attack. Raoul Bellanova is favored over Matteo Ruggeri in midfield. Marten de Roon is suspended, while Gianluca Scamacca and Giorgio Scalvini are injured.

Projected Lineups:

Atalanta (3-4-1-2): Carnesecchi; Kossounou, Hien, Kolasinac; Bellanova, Pasalic, Ederson, Zappacosta; De Ketelaere, Lookman, Retegui

Empoli (3-5-2): Vasquez; Goglichidze, Ismajili, Viti; Gyasi, Anjorin, Henderson, Maleh, Pezzella; Esposito, Colombo
