The Biancocelesti edged out a 1-0 win over the Romanian outfit in their first leg meeting in Rome last week, overcoming their man-disadvantage thanks to a goal from talismanic striker Ciro Immobile just before half time.

Lazio now have one foot in the Round of 16 of the Conference League and they’ll be looking for a positive performance in Cluj-Napoca to book their spot in the knockout stages.
