Vedat Muriqi will start for Lazio against Bologna in place of injured club captain Ciro Immobile.
Coach Maurizio Sarri has picked an almost-full strength squad for tomorrow’s match against the Rossoblu, with the only major absence being Immobile, who is out due to a thigh muscle injury. This is Muriqi’s first start of the season, and a great chance to finally prove his value to Sarri.
