Lazio & Nice Squad Analysis
Lazio Rome will not be able to count on Samuel Gigot for this match. The French defender is currently injured. Tijjani Noslin is suspended after being sent off in the first match against Dynamo Kiev. However, Marco Baroni will be able to call on the fine form of Nuno Tavares. The Portuguese full-back has provided 4 assists in his last 4 league games for Lazio Rome. Boulaye Dia is also off to a fine start, having already scored 5 goals for Lazio. In particular, he scored twice against Dynamo Kiev.
Nuno Tavares and Boulaye Dia are off to excellent starts for Lazio Rome.
OGC Nice will be missing a number of players. Melvin Bard, Morgan Sanson, Gaëtan Laborde and Terem Moffi will not be available. Tanguy Ndombele is also doubtful, after missing his side's last match at Lens. Franck Haise will certainly be expecting a lot from his goalkeeper Marcin Bulka. The Polish shot-stopper is likely to have his work cut out in the Italian capital. He'll have to pull out all the stops to keep Les Aiglons in the game. Having scored 3 goals in 6 Ligue 1 matches, Evann Guessand will be keen to unlock his Europa League account. He also missed his penalty against Real Sociedad.
