The two brothers were both strikers and now they are coaches facing off on a Serie A touchline, as Pippo took Benevento to promotion by shattering Serie B records last season.

Lazio are in the Champions League Round of 16 for the first time in over 20 years, but it came at a price, as they’ve lost two of their last three Serie A games.

The injury list is also growing rapidly, as while Luis Alberto returns, they lose Francesco Acerbi, Lucas Leiva, Mohamed Fares, Senad Lulic and Vedat Muriqi.

Midfielder Jean-Daniel Akpa Akpro is also sitting out a one-match ban.

Considering the packed fixture list, there were reports Ciro Immobile would be rested, but he naturally leads the way with Joaquin Correa.

Benevento picked up two points from the last three games and were beaten 1-0 by 10-man Sassuolo last Friday.

Christian Maggio, Luca Caldirola, Massimo Volta and Gabriele Moncini are out of action.

Roberto Insigne, Artur Ionita, Gianluca Caprari and Gianluca Lapadula complete the front line.

Benevento: Montipò; Letizia, Glik, Tuia, Barba; Schiattarella, Hetemaj; R Insigne, Ionita, Caprari; Lapadula

Lazio: Reina; Luiz Felipe, Hoedt, Radu; Lazzari, Milinkovic-Savic, Escalante, Luis Alberto, Marusic; Correa, Immobile
