Lazio will host Udinese at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome in the last fixture of Serie A Matchday 28. The contest kicks off on Monday at 20:45.
Lazio are still without Taty Castellanos and Elseid Hysaj, while Nuno Tavares has reportedly joined them on the sidelines, but Mattia Zaccagni and Fisayo Dele-Bashiru have rejoined the group. The captain is in line to start alongside Boulaye Dia and Gustav Isaksen who would act as Loum Tchaouna’s supporting cast in the tried-and-tested 4-2-3-1 formation.
However, some sources tip Marco Baroni to switch towards a 4-3-3 system. In this case, Matias Vecino would join Matteo Guendouzi and Nicolo Rovella in midfield. In any case, the backline should feature Manuel Lazzari, Mario Gila, Alessio Romagnoli and Adam Marusic, while Ivan Provedel has seemingly been reconfirmed as a starter.
Lazio (4-2-3-1): Provedel; Lazzari, Gila, Romagnoli, Marusic; Guendouzi, Rovella; Isaksen, Dia, Zaccagni; Tchaouna.
Kosta Runjaic is without his gigantic defender Souleymane Toure and first-choice goalkeeper Razvan Sava. Therefore, 39-year-old Daniele Padelli is expected to start between the posts, with Thomas Kristensen, Oumar Solet, Jaka Bijol and Hassane Kamara in front of him.
Jesper Karlstrom is expected to link up with Lazio’s former transfer target Sandi Lovric in the middle of the park, while Arthur Atta and Jurgen Ekkelenkamp will take the wings. Finally, the dysfunctional yet complementary attacking duo of Lorenzo Lucca and club captain Florian Thauvin will lead the charge for the Zebrette.
Udinese (4-4-2): Padelli; Kristensen, Bijol, Solet, Kamara; Atta, Karlstrom, Lovric, Ekkelenkamp; Thauvin, Lucca.
