Team News

Lazio
Atletico
  • Lazio boss Maurizio Sarri has the luxury of a full squad to choose from.
  • He's unlikely to make wholesale changes to his preferred XI, even with Lazio's poor start to the campaign.
  • Diego Simeone has issues in midfield with Thomas Lemar, Koke and Rodrigo De Paul all sidelined here.
  • Nahuel Molina may start at right wing-back with Cesar Azpilicueta starting from the bench.

Prediction

  • Lazio have made a poor start to the season, losing three of their four matches. Their sole win did come over defending champions Napoli, but they need to quickly bounce back from Saturday's 3-1 loss to Juventus.
  • Atletico Madrid were comfortably beaten 3-0 at Valencia over the weekend and defeat means they are already six points off top spot. The Spanish side have won their two competitive meetings with Lazio, though Tuesday's game will mark their first clash since 2012.
  • Lazio's poor start is something of a surprise but they're unlikely to get back to winning ways when they welcome Atletico to the Olimpico on Tuesday.
