Noa Lang is starting in his place against Parma on Wednesday.

David Neres - Probable for Lecce fixture Neres (ankle) is feeling better and should return Wednesday versus Lecce, Sky Italy reported.

Impact Neres has done more in training after sitting out the Inter game and will go through a game-day fitness test, but he has strong chances of returning from a two-match absence and would be in the mix with Matteo Politano, Elijf Elmas and Noa Lang in two roles in that event. Neres has posted five shots (one on target), five key passes and 17 crosses (five accurate) in his last four appearances.

Matteo Politano - Quiet showing in Inter bout Politano had three crosses (one accurate) and one corner and committed one foul in Sunday's 2-2 draw versus Inter Milan.

He has registered three or more crosses in the last six tilts, accumulating 42 (11 accurate) and adding two assists, six shots (two on target) and 13 corners over that span.

He has fired one or more shots in the last eight fixtures, totaling 21 (eight on target), scoring four times and assisting once. Instead, his four-game streak with at least one key pass ended.

Noa Lang - Sets up teammate versus Inter Lang assisted once to go with one chance created and five passes in 12 minutes in Sunday's 2-2 draw versus Inter Milan.

Impact Lang dropped to the bench as the coach fielded a more muscular lineup in a crunch match, but still played enough to notch his second consecutive assist with a nice feed for Scott McTominay. He might not be a fixture of the formation, but will have a heightened role if David Neres (ankle) misses more games. Lang has tallied three shots (one on target), six key passes and nine crosses (three accurate) in the last four rounds (one won).

Alessandro Buongiorno will likely replace him, while Luca Marianucci will be the top defensive backup.
