Lazio team news, Injuries, Pendants and probable composition

Marco Baroni’s only two absentees are Nuno Tavares, who suffered a minor muscle injury while on international duty, and Gaetano Castrovilli, who is recovering from minor surgery. The Lazio coach is likely to maintain the 4-3-3 formation adopted in the match against Monza, with Tati Castellanos at the helm. Boulay Dia has recovered from malaria, but the Argentine remains the favorite at the start.

Gustav Isaksen and Mattia Zaccagni should start on the wings, while Pedro will remain on the bench after battling gastroenteritis this week. Matias Vecino should join Nicolo Rovella and Matteo Guendouzi in midfield. Manuel Lazzari will likely benefit from Adam Marusic, with Mario Gil, Alessio Romagnoli and Luca Pellegrini completing the backline.

Lazio (4-3-3): Spent; Lazzari, Gila, Romagnoli, Pellegrini; Guendouzi, Rovella, Vecino; Isaksen, Castellanos, Zaccagni.

Bologna team news, Injuries, Pendants and probable composition

Vincenzo Italiano will have to do without Lukasz Skorupski, who misses the match due to a fever, so Federico Ravaglia will play in goal. Rossoblu will also be without Nicolo Cambiaga, Dan Ndoye, Michel Aebischer and Osama El Azzouzi. The highly experienced Lorenzo De Silvestri should start in defense alongside Miranda, Sam Bekema and Nicolo Casale, who will have the chance to prove their worth against their parent club.

In the center of the park, Remo Freuler should team up with Tommaso Pobega, while Riccardo Orsolini, Jens Odgaard and Jesper Karlsson will form the supporting team for Santiago Castro to lead Bologna’s attack, although Thijs Dallinga remains a viable alternative.

Bologna (4-2-3-1): Ravaglia; De Silvestri, Beukema, Casale, Miranda; Freuler, Escape; Orsolini, Odgaard, Karlsson; Dallinga.
