Ahead of the upcoming match against Empoli, Lazio coach Marco Baroni is reportedly considering the possibility of resting two important players who are currently one yellow card away from suspension: Nicolò Rovella and Mattia Zaccagni.
The primary objective behind this potential decision is to ensure their availability for the crucial subsequent direct clash against Juventus. Should either player receive a booking against Empoli, they would be suspended for the high-stakes encounter with the Turin side.
While dropping a player of Zaccagni`s importance is seen as complicated, there is a distinct possibility of a change occurring in midfield. Reports suggest that Matías Vecino could potentially start the match in place of Rovella, at least initially, as Baroni weighs his options to manage the squad`s disciplinary situation.
