The Giallorossi will go through with a victory and can even still top the group, but if they fail to win and Atletico Madrid beat Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, then Eusebio Di Francesco’s men will crash out.

Bruno Peres sits out a ban with Rick Karsdorp injured, but Nainggolan, Perotti and De Rossi all return to the starting line-up after injury and suspension.

Edin Dzeko found the net in Friday’s 3-1 Serie A victory over SPAL, ending his eight-game goal drought in all competition.

Kostas Manolas leads the defence, fresh from signing a new contract this week.

Qarabag are already guaranteed bottom spot in the group, but proved themselves to be tougher contenders than expected, having held Atletico Madrid to two stalemates.

Pedro Henrique and Rashad F Sadygov are suspended, with Badavi Huseynov and Ansi Agolli injured.
