Yahoo Sports Koné, Cristante to lead Roma’s midfield in 451 formation against Napoli
Roma are looking to bounce back from the recent series of poor results that caused among others the sacking of Ivan Juric.
With Claudio Ranieri back on the Giallorossi bench, the team will go up against Napoli at the Diego Maradona stadium in search of three crucial points ahead of a difficult schedule.
Ranieri’s priority will be to give Roma much needed defensive solidity and stability in the midfield.
As a result, Il Messaggero reports that Roma have prepared the match using a 451 formation and a 4231 alternative.
El Shaarawy and Soulé will operate on the wings while Manu Koné and Bryan Cristante are set to lead the midfield.
Le Fée, Paredes and Pisilli will come off the bench.
