Felipe Anderson could miss the Supercoppa against Juventus on Sunday as the Lazio winger is reportedly struggling with a thigh injury.

Anderson starred in Lazio’s 3-1 friendly win against Bayer Leverkusen a fortnight ago, but Radiosei claims he ended the game with a muscle problem, which has caused “anxiety”.

The broadcaster adds the Brazilian needs more tests “to better understand the length of his recovery”.

The broadcaster adds the Brazilian needs more tests “to better understand the length of his recovery”.

Coach Simone Inzaghi will then make a decision over the next couple of days on whether Anderson can play at the Stadio Olimpico this weekend.

If the 24-year-old is unable to play then Keita Balde Diao is likely to fill the void, despite doubts over his future with the Aquile.

Defender Stefan Radu is also considered a doubt after pulling up with a knock against Malaga over the weekend.
