Patrick Vieira is missing several players through injury, including Alan Matturo, Honest Ahanor, Mattia Bani, Hugo Cuenca and the influential Ruslan Malinovskyi. The Frenchman is expected to maintain his 4-2-3-1 formation with Nicola Leali in goal, and Stefano Sabelli, Koni De Winter, Johan Vazquez and Aaron Martin ahead of him.

In midfield, Patrizio Masini should link up with Morten Frendrup, while Morten Thorsby could be the favorite to start as an attacking midfielder, thus adding extra muscle to the middle of the park. Alessandro Zanoli and Fabio Miretti should take the wings, with Andrea Pinamonti leading the line.

Genoa (4-2-3-1):  Leali; Sabelli, De Winter, Vasquez, Martin; Masini, Frendrup; Zanoli, Thorsby, Miretti; Pinamonti.

Nuno Tavares is set for a new stint on the sidelines, joining Patric who’s out for the season. Meanwhile, Gustav Isaksen will be serving a one-match ban. Loum Tchaouna should be the favorite to replace the Dane on the right wing, but some sources claim Adam Marusic has been tested in this advanced role.

Nevertheless, most accounts still expect the Montenegrin to start in his usual right-back slot alongside Mario Gila, Samuel Gigot and Luca Pellegrini. In the middle of the park, Matteo Guendouzi and Nicolo Rovella will keep their roles, while Taty Castellanos will have to prove his fitness to get the nod upfront.

Boulaye Dia should start behind the Argentine, unless the latter doesn’t make it. In this case, the Senegalese would lead the line, with Pedro acting as an attacking midfielder.

Lazio (4-2-3-1): Mandas; Marusic, Gigot, Gila, Pellegrini; Guendouzi, Rovella; Tchaouna, Dia, Zaccagni; Castellanos
