Striker Gervinho, who has scored seven goals in all competitions for the club this season, is also likely to miss the game after picking up an injury on Saturday.

A scan revealed that the Ivorian forward had not torn a muscle as first feared, but his progress will be monitored on a daily basis, the club said.

Roma are fourth in the Serie A table, a point behind last season's champions Juventus, and have not won any of their last four matches in all competitions, including a 6-1 drubbing by Barcelona in the Champions League on Nov.24.
