#1 Play Edin Dzeko and Patrick Schick up top
Edin Dzeko plays his best football when partnered with a natural striker up top - his lack of chemistry with the young Cengiz Under was painfully obvious and with Diego Perotti unlikely to feature due to injury, playing the front two that absolutely bullied the Barcelona back-line makes the most sense for Di Francesco.
The two big men, and they are Big men, tormented Samuel Umtiti and Gerard Pique that historic night in Rome, and they'd be looking to do the same to Dejan Lovren (always good value for a mistake or two) and Virgil Van Dijk (the most pressure he's played football under in his career so far) - while at the same time trying to isolate themselves against Liverpool's inexperienced fullbacks when the ball goes up in the air.
With the midfield pushed up to support them, this could just give them the support necessary to pull off the impossible.
It'd take a bloody miracle for Roma to reach the final... but then, that's what football is all about, neh?
