IMMOBILE BACK TO ACTION FOR LAZIO

Serie A side Lazio would have their star back in Ciro Immobile when they play Crotone. They host their rivals who only just had their first win under Coach Walter Zenga.

Immobile is back in the starting side with Sergej Milinkovic-Savic available too. They have been involved in some real drama in the last few weeks, losing at home 3-1 against Torino and then returning the following week to a six goal thriller against Atalanta. Immobile was sent off in the huge loss to Torino but he is set to return now that he has served out his ban.

Immobile will lead the onslaught against Crotone with Luis Alberto supporting him as well as PSG target Milinkovic-Savic. There is Felipe Anderson on the bench who can provide fire when needed and reports claim Luis Nani has shaken off a muscular concern to be available for the game.

Crotone would not be easy to fight off after their last victory. It was their first under Zenga, defeating Chievo 1-0 last week. The Calabrese side has been in a rough patch after Davide Nicola left. The coach masterminded the club’s return to safety in the league last term but he was against being undermined by the club president. He walked away from the club management in protest so Zenga was appointed.

Crotone have Andrea Nalini, Stefan Simic, Mariano Izco and Marco tumminello out injured so the likely starting line up would have Cordaz, Sampirisi, Ajeti, Ceccherini, Martella, Rohden, Barberis, Mandragora, Trotta, Budimir, and Stoian. The usual trident would lead the attack against Lazio to make for an interesting clash.
