Roma are optimistic that both Dybala and Bailey will be available for their next league fixture against defending Serie A champions Napoli, scheduled to take place at the Stadio Olimpico on Sunday night.

Roma’s Offensive Options Strengthened
With both attackers poised to return, Roma’s attacking options look set for reinforcement at a crucial stage of the season. Dybala has made an impact with two goals and one assist in his nine appearances across all competitions, whereas Bailey has yet to contribute a goal or assist in his five matches, totalling 166 minutes of play. The return of these key players should provide manager and analysts alike with a welcome selection dilemma ahead of a significant clash.
