Lazio coach Stefano Pioli has said that he expects Sunday’s game against Torino to be a tough affair.

The Biancocelesti have claimed all three points against Palermo, Sassuolo and Fiorentina in consecutive games, though Pioli expects Torino to pose a bigger threat.

“Tomorrow we will be playing against a team that is doing well in the Europa League and will make us suffer, too.” The former Bologna boss admitted in the press conference.

Piolo then went on to reveal that Nenad Lulic and Antonio Candreva can start the game against Toro, but the issue remains undecided.

“There’s been a number of incidents, but I saw real determination,” he said. “They have been training less, but yesterday I saw they were in a good condition; I will decide tomorrow.”

“We want to try to run the game, not submit to it; the less danger you experience, the more opportunities you create.”

“We work on set pieces because they matter, and also because we have some very good set piece takers.”

It is also worth mentioning that Lazio are currently in sixth in the table, only three points behind third placed Sampdoria.
