"Starting with the hosts, claiming what was an essential boost last weekend as they snatched a nervy 1-0 victory away at Verona, Lazio are now desperately searching for some essential domestic stability. Facing a major uphill battle in the race to book a European return this season, Maurizio Sarri has certainly found some serious pressure on his shoulders. Getting the New Year underway with a 2-0 loss at home against reigning Serie A champions Napoli,"
"Serving a one-match suspension away at Verona last week, Italian international Mattia Zaccagni will return to Sarri's squad here. However, still waiting to make his Lazio debut after enduring an injury nightmare since arriving from Marseille over the summer, Samuel Gigot remains on the sidelines with a long-term ankle issue. In what is a huge boost for the Eagles, midfield talisman Nicolo Rovella has recently returned from a knee injury and should get some more minutes under his belt."
Lazio travel to face Como at the Stadio Olimpico on Monday night as both teams seek responses after recent results. Lazio won 1-0 at Verona but have only two wins from their last eight Serie A matches and have not recorded consecutive league victories this season. Lazio have taken just one point in three of their last four home league games, increasing pressure on Maurizio Sarri. Mattia Zaccagni returns from suspension, Samuel Gigot remains sidelined with a long-term ankle injury, Nicolo Rovella has returned from a knee problem, and Pedro could start. Como suffered a 3-1 home defeat to AC Milan and will look for an immediate response.
