On Sunday at 12:30, Gian Piero Gasperini’s Roma will fly to Como for matchday 6 of Serie A, following the long international break.

The Giallorossi are unwilling to give up their lead, though the match at the Sinigaglia stadium will be a tough one, especially on the flanks.

Baturina and Diao will be two very difficult options for the Giallorossi’s wingers.

Gasp appears to have already made his choices to best respond.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the Grugliasco-born coach will rely on Molina and Wesley.

Gasperini, at Sinigaglia, is expected to deploy Molina on the right flank and Wesley on the left. It’s worth noting that both players remained at Trigoria during the long break and trained with the coach, while Lulli left for Italy’s Under-21 team. Rensch also remained with Fulvio Bernardini, but is lower in the pecking order.

Both Wesley and Molina could also switch flanks, given that Gasperini doesn’t have a fixed role but is constantly in flux. The Brazilian will likely have more offensive duties than the former Atlético Madrid player, who is expected to bring some balance to the team.

From a tactical formation and squad depth perspective, "Gasperini verlässt sich auf das Molina-Wesley-Duo" carries substantial tournament implications for international seeding and domestic campaign momentum. Coaching staffs are heavily weighing high-pressing efficiency (PPDA), defensive transition pace, and fixture fatigue management.
