Lazio Team News

Lazio go into Tuesday’s game in a rather desperate mood after letting a half-time lead slip to a 2-1 defeat at Salernitana this weekend. This left them in 10th place with a rather disappointing 17 points from 13 games. Although their domestic campaign shows disappointment, Lazio is on the verge of entering the knockout stages of the Champions League after collecting seven points from four group games.

It looked set to have a successful outcome when Ciro Immobile converted his penalty in the 43rd minute, becoming the first player to score 100 away goals in Serie A. However, Salernitana equalized within 10 minutes of the second half, before ex-Lazio player Antonio Candreva scored the decisive goal, condemning Lazio to their sixth defeat in Serie A this season and extending their winless streak to three games.

Matias Vecino, who scored in the reverse fixture with Celtic, will serve a one-match suspension after picking up three yellow cards in the group stage. The hosts will have to assess Mattia Zaccagni’s fitness after picking up a hip problem on Saturday, and if the winger is fit to play, he will start in attack alongside Felipe Anderson and Ciro Immobile.

Lazio defender Alessio Romagnoli will miss a second consecutive game with a calf problem, while Nicolo Casale’s availability is questionable due to a muscle problem.

Celtic Team News

Celtic are on the brink of relegation from the Champions League after failing to win any of their four group games. They sit bottom of the group and will need a miracle to close the six-point gap on second-placed Lazio, while it will also be extremely difficult to make up the five-point gap between them and Feyenoord, who currently occupy third place and a place in the Europa League play-offs.

Despite maintaining their unbeaten record in the league last weekend, Celtic travel to Italy after an unconvincing 1-1 draw with Motherwell at Celtic Park. David Turnbull thought he had secured victory with an 86th-minute penalty, but the visitors equalized in the 90th minute.

As for the squad, Celtic will be without Rea Hatate and Liel Abade, while Honduran international Luis Palma will serve a one-match suspension for accumulating yellow cards. Daizen Maeda is suspended for the fifth round but is also recovering from an injury after the duel that earned him a red card against Atletico Madrid.

After scoring in four of his last five competitive appearances, David Turnbull could be given the chance to make his first start in the main stage of the Champions League.
