Lazio are looking to maintain their momentum without star striker Ciro Immobile in this evening’s Serie A clash against Salernitana.
The match between the Biancocelesti and the Granata kicks off at 17.00 UK time at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome.
Lazio lost their talismanic forward Immobile to a frustrating hamstring injury earlier this month, forcing them to prove their mettle under Maurizio Sarri. The team have responded well, picking up back to back wins over Atalanta and FC Midtjylland, giving them confidence.
Salernitana have started the season well and sit comfortably in mid-table, beating Spezia and Hellas Verona earlier this month. The Campania side have struggled against tough opponents, losing to Sassuolo and Inter recently.
Lazio’s only absence for today’s clash is the aforementioned Immobile. Salernitana won’t be able to count on Giulio Maggiore, out with a hamstring injury, and Matteo Lovato is also in doubt due to an ankle issue.
Probable line-ups for Lazio vs Salernitana
Lazio (4-3-3): Provedel; Lazzari, Casale, Romagnoli, Marusic; Milinkovic-Savic, Cataldi, Vecino; Pedro, Felipe Anderson, Zaccagni.
Salernitana (3-5-2): Sepe; Gyomber, Daniliuc, Fazio; Candreva, Coulibaly, Radovanovic, Vilhena, Mazzocchi; Bonazzoli, Piatek.
