Following the weekend defeat in Florence, Lazio coach Marco Baroni will be making several tweaks to the starting lineup for Wednesday’s Europa League contest against Dynamo Kyiv.
Eight Changes to Be Made for Lazio vs Dynamo Kyiv
According to La Lazio Siamo Noi, the coach could change up to eight players from the starting lineup that took on Fiorentina on Sunday. Nevertheless, Ivan Provedel should maintain his spot between the sticks, with Christos Mandas forced to wait further for his first appearance of the season.
After being rested on the weekend, Alessio Romagnoli should return to the starting lineup at the expense of Mario Gila. The former Milan captain would link up with Patric at the heart of the backline, while Adam Marusic and Luca Pellegrini replace Manuel Lazzari and Nuno Tavares in the full-back slots.
In the middle of the park, Nicolo Rovella and Matias Vecino are the favorites to start in the double pivot. Matteo Guendouzi could earn some rest, while Gaetano Castrovilli has been famously excluded from the Europa League list, so he won’t be eligible to play in Hamburg.
Fisayo Dele-Bashiru could once again get an opportunity to prove his worth, replacing Boulaye Dia in the attacking-midfielder role due to the Senegalese forward’s slight injury. On the wings, Loum Tchaouna and Pedro could come in for Gustav Isaksen and Mattia Zaccagni, while Tijjani Noslin will likely maintain his spot upfront while awaiting the return of Taty Castellanos who will be only fit enough for a brief cameo.
Lazio Probable Starting Lineup
(4-2-3-1): Provedel; Marusic; Patric, Romagnoli, Pellegrini; Vecino, Rovella; Tchaouna, Dele-Bashiru, Pedro; Noslin
