Monza coach Raffaele Palladino will be without several key players, including former Inter Milan duo Roberto Gagliardini (suspended) and Danilo D’Ambrosio (injured). The Biancorossi’s injury list also includes talented youngster Samuele Vignato, experienced defender Armando Izzo, midfielder José Machin and winger Patrick Ciurria.

Therefore, Palladino will likely rely on his gigantic striker Milan Djuric to lead the line, supported by Alessio Zerbin, Valentin Carboni and Lazio transfer target Andrea Colpani.

Monza (4-2-3-1): Di Gregorio; Birindelli, Pablo Mari, A. Carboni, Kyriakopoulos; Akpa Akpro, Pessina; Colpani, V. Carboni, Zerbin; Djuric

Lazio Team News, Injuries, Suspensions & Probable Lineup

This week, Lazio have received a boost with Ivan Provedel returning to full training. However, Christos Mandas is likely to retain his place between the spots thanks to his impressive displays as of late. With Mario Gila still unavailable due to an injury, the defense almost picks itself, with Patric, Alessio Romagnoli and Nicolo Casale emerging as the natural candidates to start.

Mattia Zaccagni made a glorious return to action last weekend, delivering the winner against Hellas Verona following his introduction. The winger will be pushing for a starting spot this time. Adam Marusic will likely be deployed on the right flank, while Daichi Kamada and Matteo Guendouzi occupy the double-pivot roles. Felipe Anderson, Luis Alberto and Taty Castellanos should constitute the attacking trident once more.

LAZIO (3-4-2-1): Mandas; Patric, Romagnoli, Casale; Marusic, Guendouzi, Kamada, Zaccagni; Felipe Anderson, Luis Alberto; Castellanos.
