Coppa Italia: Bologna vs. Lazio – probable line-ups and where to watch on TV
Bologna and Lazio meet at the Stadio Dall’Ara tonight in the Coppa Italia quarter-finals, with the winner facing Atalanta in the semis.
It kicks off at 21:00 CET (20:00 GMT) at the Dall’Ara Stadium in Bologna.
The Rossoblu are the defending champions, but are struggling in Serie A with four consecutive losses that left them 10th in the standings.
Vincenzo Italiano must cope without Charalampos Lykogiannis, Lorenzo De Silvestri and Torbjørn Heggem.
Lazio have prepared for the game in Coverciano, Florence, in the last two days and have travelled to Bologna without the injured Mattia Zaccagni, Toma Basic, Manuel Lazzari and Samuel Gigot.
Mario Gila and Oliver Provstgaard are not fully fit after sustaining minor injuries in the previous match against Juventus, but they are still expected to be available.
According to Gazzetta, Gila will get the nod in central defence, while Corriere dello Sport reports that Provstgaard will start.
The winner will face Atalanta in the semis, while Como’s win over Napoli on Tuesday sent Cesc Fabregas’ side into the other semifinal against Inter.
