Let there be Roma that the Lazio will play at 21pm, respectively against Viktoria Plzen e Athletic Bilbao.

Lazio in Czech Republic

The first match of the Biancocelesti will be away from the Olimpico: the first leg against Viktoria Plzen, in fact, will be played in the Czech Republic. Baroni and his team (who qualified as first with 19 points) will face the second force of the Czech championship. The team of Koubek is in second place in the top league of the Czech Republic, behind Slavia Prague, and in the Europa League it achieved qualification by defeating the Ferencvaros after overturning the 1-0 defeat in the first leg. The Biancocelesti, on the other hand, are coming off a victory against Milan at the photo finish, but perhaps they will have to do without Weather in Zaccagni, who came out injured from the match against the Rossoneri. Below are the probable lineups of the two teams: Viktoria Plzen (3-5-2):Jedlicka; Dweh, Markovic, Jemelka; Havel, Cerv, Kalvach, Sulc, Cadu; Vydra, Durosinmi. All. Koubek. Lazio (4-2-3-1): Mandas; Lazzari, Gigot, Gila, Nuno Tavares; Guendouzi, Rovella; Isaksen, Dia, Zaccagni; Tchaouna. All. Baroni.

Roma to start off on the right foot

For the first act of the round of 16, Ranieri and his will face Athletic Bilbao within friendly walls. The Giallorossi's commitment will be decidedly complicated, given that the Spanish team has finished its journey in the championship phase with the same number of points as the Lazio, 19.

In the last championship match, the Basques lost against Atletico Madrid, after having overcome with a sensational 7-1 the Valladolid in the previous round. The Roma, instead, comes from four consecutive victories between the league and cups: 2-1 against As an, 4-0 against Monza, 3-2 against Harbour and 1-0 against the Parma. Below are the probable lineups of the two teams: Rome (3-5-2): Svilar; Celik, Mancini, Ndicka; Saelemaekers, Koné, Cristante, Pisilli, Angelino; Dybala, Dovbyk. All. Ranieri. Athletic Bilbao (4-2-3-1): Unai Simon; Gorosabel, Vivian, Yeray, Yuri; Galarreta, Jauregizar; Inaki Williams, Unai Gomez, Nico Williams; Berenguer. All. Valverde.
