Lazio's head coach Maurizio Sarri is contemplating his starting XI for the upcoming Serie A match against Fiorentina. Despite a recent draw against Parma, Lazio has not lost in their last four matches, prompting Sarri to consider retaining most of his lineup. Fisayo Dele-Bashiru, a Nigerian midfielder, is dealing with muscle fatigue and has missed training, raising questions about his fitness for the match. While he is expected to recover in time, his starting position alongside Danilo Cataldi and Kenneth Taylor is uncertain. Toma Basic is back from injury but may not be fit enough to start. Additionally, Sarri faces a decision between veteran Pedro and Tijjani Noslin for the left-wing role, with Noslin having made a notable impact off the bench recently. The defensive lineup is likely to remain unchanged, with Adam Marusic and Nuno Tavares supporting Alessio Romagnoli and Oliver Provstgaard, as Mario Gila continues to be sidelined. Lazio's probable starting XI is projected to be a 4-3-3 formation featuring Motta in goal, with a backline of Marusic, Romagnoli, Provstgaard, and Tavares, and a midfield including either Dele-Bashiru or Basic, Cataldi, and Taylor, along with Isaksen, Maldini, and either Pedro or Noslin up front.
