Lazio are looking for redemption in Europe after their shock defeat to FC Midtjylland in tonight’s Europa League clash against Sturm Graz.
The match between the Austrian side and the Biancocelesti kicks off at 17.45 UK time at the Merkur Arena in Graz.
Maurizio Sarri’s side started their European campaign well with a thrilling 4-2 win over Feyenoord but their second outing was a painful 5-1 loss to FC Midtjylland, leaving Group F in an interesting state. All four teams are tied on three points, making this round of matches key in determining the outcome of the group.
Sturm Graz edged out a tight 1-0 win over FC Midtjylland in their opener but then suffered an embarrassing 6-0 loss to Feyenoord in their next match, so they’ll be hoping to bounce back against the Biancocelesti.
Lazio’s only absence is defender Nicolo Casale, whilst Sturm Graz have to do without Vesel Demaku, Emanuel Emegha and Jakob Jantscher.
Probable line-ups for Sturm Graz vs Lazio
Sturm Graz (4-3-1-2): Siebenhandl; Gazibegovic, Affengruber, Wuthrich, Dante; Hierlander, Stankovic, Prass; Horvat; Ajeti, Boving.
Lazio (4-3-3): Provedel; Lazzari, Gila, Romagnoli, Marusic; Luis Alberto, Cataldi, Vecino; Pedro, Immobile, Zaccagni.
