Paulo Dybala was named in Roma’s starting line-up for the Europa League final against Sevilla in Budapest on Wednesday despite injury concerns in the run-up to the match.
The Argentine forward has made just four substitute appearances since his last start against Feyenoord on April 13 but Roma boss Jose Mourinho has opted to include his top marksman this season.
Sevilla coach Jose Luis Mendilibar has picked the same side that beat Juventus at the Ramon Sanchez-Pizjuan apart from Alex Telles, who comes in at left-back in place of the suspended Marcos Acuna.
Roma take on the six-time winners at the Puskas Arena just 12 months after they won the inaugural Europa Conference League.
Mourinho is chasing his sixth major continental title while Sevilla, who also beat Manchester United in this season’s campaign, have won all six of the finals they have played in the competition.
