Precaution
Indications are that the 23-year-old Italian international will be available for the first knockout round second-leg tie in France next Tuesday, but he will not be risked against Ascoli Calcio 1898 on Saturday as a precaution. De Rossi played all 90 minutes of the Stadio Olimpico stalemate with Lyon on 21 February and has featured 24 times for the Giallorossi in the league this season, scoring two goals.
