Felipe Anderson - Erased by Juventus defenders Anderson drew two fouls, had one shot on target and one chance created, and was dispossessed three times in Sunday's 0-3 loss against Juventus.

Impact Anderson hit the net versus Roma while filling in as a false-nine to replace Ciro Immobile, but he wasn't as effective in the ensuing matches. He has posted four goals, four assists, 23 shots (14 on target), and 37 chances created in 21 matches. Lazio will visit Lecce on January 4.

Pedro - Takes two shots against Juventus Pedro drew two fouls, won two duels, and had two shots (one on goal) and two crosses (zero accurate) in Sunday's 0-3 defeat against Juventus.

Impact Pedro put together a muted stat-line, but he was one of the most active Lazio players in a poor offensive showing. He has logged four goals, two assists, 24 shots (nine on target), and 11 chances created in 18 appearances (eight starts), as he was slowed down by an ankle sprain in the early going.

Sergej Milinkovic-Savic - Sloppy versus Juventus Milinkovic-Savic won six duels and had two shots (zero on goal), three crosses (zero accurate), and one chance created in Sunday's 0-3 defeat against Juventus.

Impact Milinkovic-Savic wasn't sharp on offense and had a costly giveaway in the midfield that led to the opening goal in the first half. He closes the year with five goals, seven assists, 33 shots (11 on target), and 22 chances created in 20 appearances. Lazio will visit Lecce on January 4.

Patric - Misses Juventus game Patric (knee) wasn't available for Sunday's match versus Juventus.

Impact Patric sat out four of the final six fixtures of the year due to a knee sprain. Nicolo Casale has likely run away with the starting job at the point, so he'll return to a backup role once healthy in January.

Ivan Provedel - Allows three goals in Juventus clash Provedel had six saves and conceded three times in Sunday's 0-3 loss to Juventus.

Impact Provedel had good volume and a few impressive saves, but he was beaten three times, and he looked tentative coming out of the box in the first goal, while he could do little on the other ones. He won the starting job from Luis Maximiano early, and he proceeded to keep ten clean sheets in 21 matches, surrendering 22 goals and making 55 saves. Lazio will visit Lecce on January 4.

Impact Lazzari hasn't completed the tests yet because of some swelling in the muscle, but he won't be available for this one. Elseid Hysaj or Mario Gila will replace him on the right flank, but they offer significantly less fantasy appeal.

Ciro Immobile - Should be option versus Monza Immobile (thigh) practiced with the rest of the teammates Wednesday and should be able to log a few minutes versus Monza, Tuttomercatoweb informs.

Impact Immobile made a token appearance on the bench in the past game, but he has improved afterward and, even if not 100 percent, has good chances to play, considering that Lazio are short-handed up front. He has scored twice and added an assist, 13 shots (four on target), and three chances created in the last five appearances.

NOVEMBER 9, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Luis Alberto - Good to go for Monza game Alberto (knee) didn't require tests following the sub versus Roma and will be available in Thursday's fixture with Monza, Il Messaggero informs.

Impact Alberto picked up just a knock and actually wanted to continue playing, and taking him out was partially a tactical choice. He's likely to begin on the bench, as has been often been the case, with Sergej Milinkovic-Savic back from suspension. He has featured in just two of the last five matches. He has scored and assisted once in his last five appearances, adding three shots (two on target), five chances created, and nine crosses (one accurate).
