According to La Lazio Siamo Noi, he could still be included in the matchday squad, although it remains uncertain whether he will be fit enough to play.
The 25-year-old has been an important part of Lazio’s midfield in recent weeks, featuring alongside Danilo Cataldi and Kenneth Taylor. He has made 17 league appearances so far this season for the Biancocelesti.
Lazio go into the match in strong form, having gone unbeaten in their last four Serie A outings.
