Lazio Team News, Injuries, Suspensions & Probable Lineup

As usual, Marco Baroni will be ringing the changes in Europe, especially when playing against relatively lowly opposition. Christos Mandas has cemented himself as the designated Europa League goalkeeper, while Adam Marusic should replace Manuel Lazzari at right back. Samuel Gigot and Patric should also get the nod in the backline, while Luca Pellegrini remains the only option at left-back with Nuno Tavares out.

Matteo Guendouzi should link up with Matias Vecino in the double pivot as Fisayo Dele-Bashiru is still working on regaining his best physical condition. On the wings, Loum Tchaouna and Pedro should give Gustav Isaksen and Mattia Zaccagni a breather, while Boulaye Dia should start behind Tijjani Noslin who’s the favorite to lead the charge.

Lazio (4-2-3-1): Mandas; Marusic; Gigot, Patric, Pellegrini; Guendouzi, Vecino; Tchaouna, Dia, Pedro; Noslin.

Ludogorets (4-2-3-1): Padt; Witry, Almeida, Verdon, Son; Pedro Nasseri, Chochev; Erick Marcus, Piotrowski, Rwan Seco; Duah.
