Lazio is set to face Udinese at the Stadio Olimpico, with Loum Tchaouna leading the attack. This match presents Lazio with an opportunity to climb past Juventus into fourth place in Serie A.
The game will be held at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome.
Lazio will be without Luca Pellegrini, Elseid Hysaj, Valentin Castellanos, and Nuno Tavares for this fixture.
Udinese will miss Isaak Touré and Razvan Sava.
Coming off a 2-1 victory against Viktoria Plzen in the Europa League Round of 16 first leg, Lazio will host the return leg next Thursday.
Despite the upcoming European match, coach Marco Baroni is expected to field a strong lineup. Mattia Zaccagni and Gustav Isaksen are likely to start on the wings, supporting striker Tchaouna.
Matias Vecino is anticipated to partner Matteo Guendouzi in midfield, with Nicolò Rovella possibly rested after being suspended for the Europa League game.
Udinese is expected to deploy their standard 4-4-2 formation, with Lorenzo Lucca and Florian Thauvin forming the attacking duo.
Currently, Lazio is just two points behind Juventus. A win in this match would propel them into a coveted Champions League qualification spot.
