With Juve Candreva threatens the bench: Lazio in Turin back … – The Messenger

Pioli tried to return to the old. And meditates exclusion excellent. Doubts are different. A Lazio less front-wheel drive and a bit ‘heavier in midfield. Okay the identity of the game and the winning mentality, whoever you face, but this time there is before the league leaders Juventus, and despite the certainties, the ranking begins to have a weight and some account must do it. The technician is seriously thinking of leaving out the 4-2-3-1, the module all quality and imagination, and deploy a 4-3-3 formation, making Candreva sit on the bench. Not just any. The test yesterday in Formello, just before leaving for Turin, was clearly in this direction, but the final decision will be made at the last minute. Or so the coach has made it clear to their players.

FINISHING DECISIVE
“I have a bit ‘of doubt, it is true,” the words of the coach before taking the plane at a time of Turin. A guideline is there, but there will be conclusive test this morning, shortly before lunchtime. An important finishing. Pioli is undecided whether to propose a Lazio with 4-3-3 or maintain the structure of the last races. Much depends on the position of Lulic. If the Bosnian will be confirmed in the midfield, as you think, then one of Candreva and Mauri (which will probably be the one who will take care of Pirlo) will be out, or if the hero of the cup will be back in defense as last Sunday against Empoli at that point the Lazio will go on as usual. To shift the balance are the absences of de Vrij and Parolo. With the two of them in the field, there would be no doubt, but not things change radically, especially from the point of view tactical.

THE CERTAINTY
Tonight in Turin you will review Marchetti in goal. The goalkeeper, operated on the nose a week ago, will play from the first minute, will only have to decide whether or not to play with protective mask. Probably yes, if you will not give him too much bother. Before him there will be enough, Mauricio-Cana (Albanian busy with his national affair Serbia-Albania has reached the team just last night) and one of Braafheid and Lulic. Amid Biglia and Cataldi, while later Klose will be assisted by Felipe Anderson.
