Player to watch – Boulaye Dia
Senegalese attacker Boulaye Dia could come into the Lazio starting XI to replace injured attacker Valentin Castellanos and he has the talent to make a decent splash.
Dia knows where the goal is
Dia came off the bench to score against Napoli last weekend and that was his third strike in six Serie A appearances. The 28-year-old will probably feel that he deserves an extended run in the Lazio team and he could have an opportunity to shine against Venezia.
