Lazio's preparations for their upcoming match against Fiorentina have been disrupted by injuries to two key players. Daniel Maldini is ruled out due to an inflamed patellar tendon, while Adam Marusic is facing a possible muscle strain, which could keep him sidelined for the next few matches, including a crucial Coppa Italia semi-final against Atalanta on April 22. Coach Maurizio Sarri will need to make significant changes to his lineup, with Boulaye Dia set to take Maldini's place. Manuel Lazzari is expected to replace Marusic at right-back after his strong performance against Parma. Although Mattia Zaccagni is back in training, he is not fit to start. The probable starting XI for Lazio includes Motta, Lazzari, Romagnoli, Provstgaard, Tavares, Basic (or Dele-Bashiru), Cataldi, Taylor, Isaksen (or Cancellieri), Dia, and Pedro (or Noslin).
