On the pitch Bologna-Lazio 0-0
DIRECT
Eve.
To support Lazio, in the match against Bologna on Saturday evening, there will be the memory of a special fan: Gianmarco Calleri, the Biancoceleste president from 1986 to 1992, who passed away on 8 March at the age of 81.
Honoring the memory of the patron who brought champions like Gascoigne and Riedle to the capital will be an extra stimulus for Sarri's boys, returning from the disappointing defeat in the Conference League against AZ Alkmaar.
At the Olimpico, last Tuesday, Lazio had "the wrong attitude", as repeated several times by the coach, throwing the game away with persistent ball possession in their own half.
The absence of Ciro Immobile certainly didn't help: the striker will miss the Emilia away match given the hamstring injury he suffered against Napoli.
For the striker it is the third physical problem of the season, and his goals would serve as bread for a team that has racked up a paltry eight goals in the last ten games.
The task of revitalizing the eagle attack is on the shoulders of Felipe Anderson, the loyalist of Sarri (always on the field since the coach arrived in Rome);
the Brazilian will act as a false nueve, assisted by Pedro and Zaccagni.
In defense Hysaj will replace the disqualified Marusic on the left, while there is a run-off between Casale (bruised due to a muscle problem) and Patric for the place next to Romagnoli.
In midfield, space for the three tenors, Milinkovic, Luis Alberto and Cataldi, very close to renewing with the club of his life: Ottavia's midfielder, who reached 200 appearances against AZ with the eagle on his chest,
will extend his contract until 2028, earning 1.5 million euros per season plus bonuses.
Bologna, thanks to Thiago Motta, is having a good season and is no longer the team that lost in the first leg: they were first in the league and Lazio won 2-1 in a comeback thanks to an own goal from the former De Silvestri and an own network of Immobile.
