Salernitana vs Lazio: Recent History
Lazio carry the burdens of the unknown as they prepare to head to Campania, being a team fully capable of blowing their opposition out the water but also at risk of slumping to a confusing and frustrating defeat.
Maurizio Sarri has seen a number of positive signs in recent weeks and he’ll be hoping to see the team truly display their qualities in Salerno as they look to stay involved in the race for a top four finish.
Salernitana are hovering dangerously close to the relegation zone, sitting just four points ahead of 18th place Hellas Verona, so they’ll be dreaming of an upset over the Biancocelesti as they look to escape the swirling vortex of Serie B.
The Campania outfit have only won one of their last 10 league outings, drawing two and losing the other seven, putting the pressure on them to try and find the coveted three points.
Salernitana vs Lazio: Team News
Salernitana have a number of injuries heading into their clash with Lazio, unable to count on Federico Fazio, Pasquale Mazzocchi, Giulio Maggiore, Boulaye Dia and William Troost-Ekong.
Things are a little simpler for the Biancocelesti, although they’re without the suspended star winger Mattia Zaccagni. Alessio Romagnoli and Stefan Radu have both been ruled out of the match in Campania through injury.
Expected Starting Lineups
Sarri is unlikely to pull out any surprises in Campania, relying on trusted regulars like Ciro Immobile, Felipe Anderson, Luis Alberto and Sergej Milinkovic-Savic. Patric, who did not have a good outing against CFR Cluj, will fill in for the injured Romagnoli.
Salernitana (4-3-2-1): Ochoa; Sambia, Daniliuc, Bronn, Bradaric; Coulibaly, Nicolussi Caviglia, Vilhena; Candreva, Bonazzoli; Piatek.
Lazio (4-3-3): Provedel; Marusic, Patric, Casale, Hysaj; Milinkovic-Savic, Cataldi, Luis Alberto; Felipe Anderson, Immobile, Pedro.
