Lazio v Napoli, official lineups: predicted goalscorers, cautioned players and marksmen for the match at the Stadio Olimpico
Sarri against his past, in a clash that has all the ingredients for quality plays and important actions, on both sides. At the Stadio Olimpico two of the most intriguing teams face each other, both eager to grab a place in the top flight. The official lineups for Lazio v Napoli have just been announced. Let’s take a look at them:
- LAZIO: Provedel; Lazzari, Patric, Romagnoli, Marusic; Milinkovic-Savic, Cataldi, Luis Alberto; Felipe Anderson, Immobile, Zaccagni
- NAPOLI (4-3-3) Meret; Di Lorenzo, Rrahmani, Kim, Mario Rui; Anguissa, Lobotka, Zielinski; Lozano, Osimhen, Kvaratskhelia.
Lazio v Napoli, goalscorer prediction
In addition to the usual favourites Osimhen and Immobile, watch out for surprises, if they can be called that. The ‘Sergeant’ Milinkovic Savic has always shown that he can be dangerous in big matches: coincidentally, Sarri’s halfback has only scored one goal – on a free kick – against Napoli, in thirteen official matches. The sensation is that in some circumstances Spalletti’s rearguard struggles to read the midfielders’ off-guard insertions, so to speculate that Milinkovic could score at least one goal is anything but utopian.
Probable cautions and marksmen for Lazio v Napoli
Maio Rui could suffer from the effervescence of Sarri’s attacking outfielders, who have shown far and wide that they are capable of jumping man with disarming ease. Watch out for Lobotka, who has gone close on several occasions this early in the season: the idea of optioning him as a marksman is not to be dismissed.
