Sarri to Rotate Lazio Lineup Against Udinese: Six Changes Expected
Sarri to Rotate Lazio Lineup Against Udinese: Six Changes Expected Following Wednesday’s enchanting victory, Lazio head coach Maurizio Sarri is expected to ring the changes when his team hosts Udinese on Monday. Maurizio Sarri Will Change at Least Six Players in Lazio vs Udinese Clash The Biancocelesti reached the final of the Coppa Italia by beating Atalanta on penalty shootouts in midweek. But after a gruelling 120 minutes in Bergamo, several players could use some rest, even with the team playing on Monday.
Moreover, the Serie A standings are no longer considered a priority for the Italian capital side, as catching up with the European spots is virtually impossible at this stage. Therefore, Sarri will take the opportunity to rotate his starting lineup when they take on Udinese in the final fixture of Serie A Matchday 34. Lazio Defence Set for Overhaul Against Udinese According to La Lazio Siamo Noi , Adam Marusic will be dropped from the starting.
The Montenegrin pulled off a speedy recovery to make himself available against Atalanta, but he will make way for Manuel Lazzari on the right flank. On the opposite side of the pitch, Luca Pellegrini should return to the lineup for the first time in almost two months, giving Nuno Tavares a well-deserved breather. With Mario Gila ruled out with an injury , Oliver Provstgaard should accompany Alessio Romagnoli at the heart of the backline, while Patric could replace the Italian, either from the first minute or in the second half.
Danilo Cataldi Back in Midfield In the middle of the park, Danilo Cataldi will regain his starting role. Fisayo Dele-Bashiru is pushing for a berth, but the source still considers Toma Basic and Kenneth Taylor the favorites for the two box-to-box roles. At Least Two Changes in Lazio Attack In attack, either Daniel Maldini or Boulaye Dia should take over from Tijjani Noslin, who played the whole match against Atalanta.
Gustav Isaksen is tipped to replace Matteo Cancellieri, while Sarri is also considering resting Mattia Zaccagni, which would give the opportunity to Pedro. Lazio Probable XI (4-3-3): Motta; Lazzari, Romagnoli, Provstgaard, Pellegrini; Basic (Dele-Bashiru), Cataldi, Taylor; Isaksen, Dia (Maldini), Zaccagni (Pedro).
