Lazio coach Simone Inzaghi is set to start Andreas Pereira and Vedat Muriqi together up front against Atalanta tomorrow, as he looks to rotate the squad in the Coppa Italia clash, according to a report from Italian media outlet La Lazio Siamo Noi earlier today.
The report details how the 44-year-old Italian coach is planning to rest Italian forward Ciro Immobile, Ecuadorian striker Felipe Caicedo and Argentine Joaquin Correa in tomorrow’s fixture.

In defense will be Patric, Wesley Hoedt and Francesco Acerbi, with Pepe Reina in goal.
Thomas Strakosha, Luiz Felipe and Luis Alberto are all out injured still, and Lucas Leiva is suspended.
