Lazio ‘to stick’ with same XI vs AC Milan, one doubt on right | OneFootball

Gennaro Gattuso could stick with an unchanged Lazio XI when he hosts former club AC Milan at the Stadio Olimpico on Saturday, kick-off 18:00 CET. The Italian has overseen three Serie A wins and his options are limited in several areas.

La Lazio Siamo Noi reports that the side could mirror the comeback win in Udine, with Christos Mandas in goal behind Romano Floriani Mussolini, Danilho Doekhi, Oliver Provstgaard and Nuno Tavares.

Adam Marusic is out until the international break and Josip Sutalo is still sidelined, delaying his debut. New signing Diogo Leite should receive his first call-up and is expected to start on the bench.

With absences stacking up, the midfield seems set. Reda Belahyane would operate as regista between Davide Frattesi and Kenneth Taylor. Nicolo Rovella is expected to remain out until the break, Fisayo Dele-Bashiru could return for next weekend’s match against Venezia, and Danilo Cataldi is recovering from groin surgery.

Up front, despite a slight knock at Udinese, Andrea Pinamonti should lead the line, with captain Mattia Zaccagni on the left. The remaining doubt is on the right, where Gustav Isaksen is favoured over Matteo Cancellieri. La Gazzetta dello Sport puts it at 60-40 in the Dane’s favour.
