Simone Inzaghi’s side have been so impressive in Europe this season, topping their group and eliminating Steaua Bucharest and Dynamo Kiev in the knockouts.

However, Austrians Red Bull Salzburg caused some upsets of their own, defeating Olympique Marseille, Real Sociedad and sending Borussia Dortmund out in the Round of 16.

They achieved that while going unbeaten in the competition so far, earning five wins and five draws, including six clean sheets.

Lazio go into this game with practically a full squad, as Milinkovic-Savic returns to the starting XI with Lucas Leiva, who can’t seem to stop scoring at the moment.

Luis Alberto supports Immobile, with Felipe Anderson ready to come off the bench and run at tired defenders in the second half.

RB Salzburg must do without suspended South Korean striker Hee-Chan Hwang, so Norwegian Fredrik Gulbrandsen steps in to partner centre-forward Munas Dabbur.

They currently sit eight points clear at the top of their domestic table and in 28 competitive matches this term have lost only one: 1-0 away to Sturm Graz on August 27.
