Fantasy Team Picks
Goal-Keeper
Despite being battered by Inter Milan, AS Roma’s Pau Lopez stood his ground to act as the perfect watchdog of his side’s sticks.
Defenders
We will be pairing him up the tenacious Roger Ibanez. Lazio on the other hand will see us rope in the plucky duo of Francesco Acerbi and Stefan Radu owing to the two’s ability to disrupt attacking plays with their tackles and blocks.
Midfielders
Having already scored on four occasions for his side, Luis Alberto is showing why he’s become such a valued player for Lazio over the years. Sergej Milinkovic-Savic has been enterprising as ever, recording five assists to see him complete the duo from the home team.
With 7 goals already in his kitty, Jordan Veretout has stamped his authority with abundance. A massive reason for him scoring those bagful of goals is Lorenzo Pellegrino who has popped up with the three assist.
Strikers
Henrikh Mkhitaryan’s assist the last time around took him to 8 assists for the season. Thriving off those square backs is striker Edin Dzeko who has netted on 7 occasions for the club.
Lazio’s leading scorer yet again with a behemoth 11 goals and 2 assists, Ciro Immobile completes our team for the day.
Captain And Vice-Captain
With 8 goals and 8 assists, Henrikh is our captain while Ciro is the vice-captain.
