Gasperini ponders Castro-Malen duo vs Slovan
Roma will host Slovan Bratislava tomorrow evening (9:00 PM) at the Stadio Olimpico, a match valid for the third round of the Champions League league format.
The Giallorossi are desperate to secure all three points, having started their European campaign with a draw at Fenerbahçe and a home defeat against Real Madrid.

A surprise attack is not out of the question ahead of the European night.
As La Gazzetta dello Sport reports, the possibility of seeing Castro and Malen on the pitch together is rising. Gasperini himself mentioned this after the win against Genoa.
Malen and Castro could have a chance from the start against Slovan Bratislava. The two forwards, as has been seen this season, are generally alternates.
Removing the Dutch striker from the field is very difficult, given that he has scored eight goals in as many games: Roma essentially starts matches with a one-goal advantage over their opponents.
Tomorrow, however, considering that Dybala is struggling with muscle fatigue that prevented him from playing against Genoa, the option of a double striker, with an attacking midfielder behind them, could become a reality.
