Check out the probable line-ups for today’s Serie A games, including Lazio–Spezia and Atalanta–Fiorentina.
We start at 11.30 am UK time with Maurizio Sarri’s Lazio hosting Spezia at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome. The Biancocelesti have won all their previous five games against the Aquilotti in Serie A.
Ciro Immobile was not involved with Italy during the break but seems fit to start today.
Serie A strugglers meet in Lecce-Cremonese and Sampdoria Monza at 2pm, the same time as Sassuolo–Salernitana.
Sampdoria and Cremonese are the only two Serie A teams without victories this season, but the Blucerchiati also have the less prolific attacks so far with only four goals scored, the same as Monza.
On the other hand, no team has kept more clean sheets than Sassuolo and Atalanta so far (four each).
La Dea hosts Vincenzo Italiano’s Fiorentina at th Gewiss Stadium at 17.00 UK time.
Gian Piero Gasperini’s side Atalanta won four of the last seven games against the Tuscans but lost the two most recent ones.
Juventus host Bologna at the Allianz Stadium at 19.45 (probable line-ups), but Matchday 8 ends on Monday night with Verona–Udinese at the Stadio Bentegodi.
