Biancocelesti returning from a 3-0 victory at Salernitana but struggling with many ailments and absences.
"The spirit of wanting to pass the round. It is an important event, you have to take the field without having retro thoughts. We are
sorry that we do not have many spare parts and therefore it will be difficult from a mental and physical point of view but we have to go straight", explained the coach today. Maurizio Sarri to the official channels of the club. The emergency in defense continues, where the injured Francesco Acerbi will still be missing and will be replaced by Patric, former owner of Salerno.
Compared to the match against Campania, Manuel Lazzari should carve out a place from the start, fresh from the 0-3 goal and eager to find continuity after so many benches in a row.
"We don't have a lot of availability we will make changes but there won't be many because we can't make them at the moment," admitted Sarri. Similar speech, therefore, for the median, where Basic is still unavailable and Luis Alberto will play in his place again on the same line as Milinkovic-Savic, while in the direction Cataldi confirmed as he will have to miss Atalanta on Saturday due to disqualification. In attack, Pedro is struggling with a calf problem, in his place it will be up to Felipe Anderson with Zaccagni supporting Ciro Immobile. A Sarri who keeps his newfound success in the championship but at the same time invites us not to exalt too much the 3-0 obtained at the home of the bottom of the table: "We must continue on this path.The match with the Salerno player must be taken with a grain of salt because we don't know where our strengths and the shortcomings of an opponent with so many absences end up. We expressed a quality football, beyond the value of the opponents, and we must continue on this path. "
