At the Stadio Olimpico in Rome, Lazio will be looking to return to winning ways on the domestic front when they host Genoa.

Lazio Team News, Injuries, Suspensions & Probable Lineup

Thankfully for Marco Baroni, he has a full squad at his disposal, except for Manuel Lazzari who could return to action in the coming days. So following Thursday’s Europa League victory over FC Twente, the Lazio boss will revert to his usual starting lineup, as he’s expected to make eight changes.

Ivan Provedel returns in goal, while Adam Marusic, Mario Gila, Patric and Nuno Tavares will constitute the backline. Matteo Guendouzi has overcome a toe issue, so he’ll resume duties in the middle of the park alongside Nicolo Rovella. Finally, Taty Castellanos will lead the line supported by Gustav Isaksen, Boulaye Dia and club captain Mattia Zaccagni.

Lazio (4-2-3-1): Provedel; Marusic, Gila, Patric, Tavares; Rovella, Guendouzi; Isaksen, Dia, Zaccagni; Castellanos.

Genoa Team News, Injuries, Suspensions & Probable Lineup

Genoa are enduring a catastrophic injury crisis that has deprived Alberto Gilardino of several key players, including Ruslan Malinovskyi, Vitinha, Junior Messias, Mattia Bani, Koni De Winter and Pierluigi Gollini.

The Grifone will once again rely on Andrea Pinamonti to spearhead the charge after bagging a brace last weekend against Bologna. He will be supported by Morten Thorsby who will feature in a slightly more advanced role than usual. Nicola Leali will be deputizing in goal once more, while Juventus loanee Fabio Miretti joins Filippo Melegoni and Morten Frendrup in the middle of the park.

Genoa (3-5-1-1):  Leali; Matturo, Vazquez, Vogliacco; Sabelli, Melegoni, Frendrup, Miretti, Martin; Thorsby, Pinamonti.
