Team News: Keita Balde Diao starts for Lazio against Atalanta BC

Keita Balde Diao will lead the line for Lazio in their Serie A clash at Atalanta BC this afternoon.

The 20-year-old came off the bench to score in the club's 4-0 win over Parma in midweek and is tasked with replacing the suspended Miroslav Klose.

He will be supported by Felipe Anderson and Antonio Candreva, while Stefano Mauri also returns to the starting lineup in place of Senad Lulic.

Atalanta are without German Denis, who is banned until their final match of the season, so Mauricio Pinilla continues on his own up front.

Atalanta: Sportiello, Bellini, Biava, Masiello, Del Grosso, Migliaccio, Gomez, Carmona, Cigarini, D'Alessandro, Pinilla

Lazio: Marchetti, Basta, Mauricio, Ciani, Radu, Cataldi, Parolo, Candreva, Mauri, Felipe Anderson, Keita
