Venezia

Armel Bella-Kotchap will again be missing from the Venezia back line, ruled out through injury after starting three of the club's last four matches. Bartol Franjić is also out, leaving Giovanni Stroppa's back four unsettled again as Venezia try to open their account at the bottom of the table.

Matías Moreno deputised for Bella-Kotchap in the middle of defence last time out, making his first start in that position against Fiorentina. At left-back, Franjić's absence has already forced Stroppa to shuffle between three different options in recent weeks, with Ridgeciano Haps and Redouane Halhal both used there in his stead.

Lazio

Boulaye Dia is no longer part of the Lazio squad, despite having started twice in the club's last four league matches. Danilho Doekhi will also be missing, the centre-back ruled out with a hand injury.

That opens the door again for Josip Šutalo, who made his first start there against AC Milan last time out, with Doekhi having held that centre-back spot in three of the previous four matches beforehand.

Beyond those two changes, Lazio approach the trip to Venezia unbeaten in four games and top of the table, with the rest of Gattuso's side settled.
