Matteo Cancellieri
LAZBows out in Inter fixture
Cancellieri had one clearance and drew two fouls in 45 minutes in Saturday's 3-0 defeat to Inter Milan before departing due to glute tightness, La Gazzetta dello Sport relayed.
Analysis: Cancellieri got the call over Gustav Tang Isaksen, but didn't get anything going in the first half and stayed in the locker room due to a minor physical problem. He'll need to be assessed ahead of next Sunday's clash with Roma.
Will return versus Inter
Cancellieri completed a one-game ban in Monday's 2-1 win over Cremoense.
Analysis: Cancellieri will be back Saturday and will resume dueling with Gustav Tang Isaksen, who hit the net in this one. He has tallied at least one shot in his last three appearances (all starts), accumulating five attempts (four on target), scoring and assisting once and notching three key passes and four tackles (three won) during that stretch. Furthermore, he has recorded one or more clearances in five displays in a row, totaling 10.
Suspended for Cremonese match
Cancellieri won two of two tackles, drew three fouls, created one scoring chance and was cautioned for the fifth time in Monday's 3-3 draw with Cremonese.
Analysis: Cancellieri had a pedestrian outing and won't be available for the next round due to yellow-card accumulation. Gustav Tang Isaksen will likely replace him on the right wing.
