Mattia Destro has been included in Roma's starting lineup against Pescara in their Serie A clash away from home this afternoon.
The 21-year-old striker will start alongside Pablo Osvaldo and Francesco Totti in the Lupi's attack.
Miralem Pjanic retains his place in midfield for Roma, who are without the suspended Daniele De Rossi and the injured trio of Erik Lamela, Rodrigo Taddei and Maarten Stekelenburg.
This is Cristiano Bergodi's first match as Pescara coach after he replaced Giovanni Stroppa, who resigned last week.
Pescara: Perin; Romagnoli, Terlizzi, Bocchetti; Balzano, Bjarnason, Nielsen, Togni, Modesto; Quintero, Abbruscato
Roma: Goicoechea; Piris, Marquinhos, Castan, Balzaretti; Pjanic, Bradley, Florenzi; Destro, Osvaldo, Totti
