Siviglia sparks injury crisis
Thursday 20 November, 2008

Lazio boss Delio Rossi has been dealt a blow with the news that defender Sebastiano Siviglia is likely to miss this weekend's clash against Genoa.

The Aquile are looking to bounce back from last Sunday's derby defeat against Roma.

It could be a tough task for Rossi's men, who come up against a Genoa side also looking to forget Week 12 after a crushing 4-1 defeat at the hands of Juventus.

Today's news that key defender Siviglia has damaged his left thigh will have frustrated Rossi, who may now have to hand Mobido Diakité his first start of the campaign.

Diakité suffered a broken leg in Lazio's 2007-08 season opener against Torino, but he has finally returned to full fitness after an agonising road to recovery.
