Wed Sep 25 07:57:58 UTC 2024: ## Lazio to Rotate Squad for Europa League Debut Against Dynamo Kyiv

Lazio will field a rotated squad for their 2024-25 Europa League debut against Dynamo Kyiv this evening, kicking off at 21:00 CET (19:00 GMT) at the neutral Volksparkstadion in Hamburg.

Coach Marco Baroni, making his European competition debut at 61, is expected to make eight changes following Lazio’s 2-1 loss to Fiorentina on Sunday.

Taty Castellanos returns from injury but won’t start, while Elseid Hysaj and Gaetano Castrovilli were omitted from Lazio’s UEFA squad. The only injury concern for Lazio is Samuel Gigot.

Alessio Romagnoli returns to the starting XI, partnering Patric in central defense. Luca Pellegrini replaces Nuno Tavares at left-back. Matias Vecino and Nicolò Rovella will start in midfield, while Tijjani Noslin and Pedro will lead the attack, with the former Chelsea and Barcelona star expected to operate as a false nine.

Lazio’s predicted lineup (4-2-3-1): Provedel; Marusic, Patric, Romagnoli, Pellegrini; Rovella, Vecino; Tchaouna, Dele-Bashiru, Noslin; Pedro.

Dynamo Kyiv will counter with their own 4-2-3-1 formation, with Bushchan in goal and Yarmolenko leading the line.
