Tonight, Mattia Zaccagni will be absent. The Lazio winger, hit during the game on Friday, experienced some discomfort and did not train with the group yesterday at Coverciano, limiting himself to an individual session in the gym.

Therefore, Zaccagni will sit in the stands: in his place - according to Sky Sport and La Gazzetta dello Sport, the coach would insert Locatelli, switching from a 424 to a 433 with Kean wide on the left wing.

In the list of 23 called up, Daniel Maldini will enter, who in the previous game was left out along with Carnesecchi, Leoni, and Fabbian, who are also excluded this time.
