The starting lineups for this evening’s Serie A clash between Maurizio Sarri’s Lazio and Marco Baroni’s Lecce have been announced.

Recent History & Form

Lazio have struggled to maintain momentum in recent weeks, losing three of their last four outings in Serie A, keeping things tense in the race for a top four finish.

Sarri’s side sit third in the table, just three points ahead of fifth place Milan, making a victory against Lecce key as they fight for a return to the Champions League.

Lecce are desperate to pick up points in the final stages of this season, sitting just four points ahead of relegation candidates Spezia with four games left to play. Every point matters for Baroni’s side and they’ll likely prove tough opposition for the Biancocelesti.

When these two teams met back in January, Lecce edged out a tense 2-1 win over Lazio, a result the Roman club will be desperate to avoid repeating.
