Spalletti had already announced the absences of Yildiz and McKennie on the eve of the game, while Thuram was not expected to be included, so there were no surprises here.

On the other hand, Zhegrova was expected to be fit and available from the bench, but the Kosovo international is also out of action for today’s game.
Sky Sport Italia reported on Friday that Lazio had approached Zhegrova, but according to Il Bianconero, he is not available due to muscle fatigue.
McKennie is also dealing with muscle problems, while Yildiz will remain out of action for over two months after undergoing surgery for a foot fracture. The same might be true for Thuram, who will have a specialist consultation next week due to knee problems.
On the other hand, Italy international Ekhator returns to action for Juventus, who beat Frosinone away in the opening Serie A game of the season last week.
