Lazio travel to Venice on Saturday with Gino Gattuso able to bring Doekhi back into his squad, while three absences continue to shape his options for Serie A’s fifth round.
The decision
Gattuso has named Doekhi among the players available for the away meeting with Venezia at the Penzo, a welcome return as Lazio prepare for another early test in the league campaign.
Rovella, Marusic and Dele-Bashiru remain unavailable. Their continued absence leaves the coach to manage his resources carefully during a period when the standings are beginning to take form.
The Lazio squad selected for the trip includes three goalkeepers: Mandas, Motta and Renzetti.
- Defenders: Doekhi, Floriani M., Lazzari, Leite, Pedraza, Provstgaard, Šutalo, Tavares.
- Midfielders: Belahyane, Cataldi, Farcomeni, Frattesi, Taylor.
- Forwards: Cancellieri, Gudmundsson, Isaksen, Noslin, Pinamonti, Serra, Zaccagni.
Sunday’s picture
Lazio will face Venezia at the Penzo on Saturday evening, with kick-off scheduled for 20:45. The fixture is part of Serie A’s fifth matchday and gives Gattuso’s side an opportunity to carry their early-season work into a demanding away setting.
