Lazio’s starting lineup for their Europa League clash against Olympique Marseille has been announced.
As seen in a post on Lazio’s Twitter page earlier today, coach Maurizio Sarri has decided to start star striker Ciro Immobile against the French side this evening, despite his slightly uncertain physical condition.

The 31-year-old Immobile was seen training alone yesterday after suffering from flu-like symptoms. He was also wearing a bandage on his left knee.
Sarri considers Immobile irreplaceable in the squad and the Roman club need to pick up all three points against the French side tonight if they want a solid chance to qualify for the Europa League Round of 16.
The last meeting between these two teams ended 0-0 in Rome, something neither coach wants to be repeated.
