Morten Hjulmand - Will miss Spezia clash Hjulmand won two of three tackles, created two scoring chances, and had four clearances in Wednesday's 2-1 win over Spezia, picking up his fifth yellow card.

Impact Hjulmand shined defensively as per usual, but he'll have to sit out one game due to yellow-card accumulation. He'll be replaced by either Kristoffer Askildsen or Youssef Maleh.

Elseid Hysaj - Included in match-day squad Hysaj (calf) was named to the match-day squad to face Lecce on Wednesday, per SkySports.

Impact Hysaj has been in and out of the starting XI all season long, so his presence on the bench shouldn't come as a surprise. Even when he does start, the defender hasn't generated much in the way of fantasy value with just eight crosses (four accurate), one assist and two shots (one on target) in 18 contests.

Danilo Cataldi - In starting XI Cataldi (back) will be in the starting XI for Wednesday's clash with Lecce.

Impact Cataldi can certainly push the attack from the midfield with 25 crosses (nine accurate) in his last eight contests, not to mention his role on corners, having taken 23 of that same stretch. Still, the midfielder has just one shot on target in those eight appearances and probably shouldn't be expected to score with any regularity.

Lameck Banda - Starting Wednesday Banda (undisclosed) will feature in the starting XI against Lazio on Wednesday.

Impact Banda came off the bench in three of his last four appearances but will get the start Wednesday. Despite logging just 19 minutes his previous time out, the forward managed to score his first goal of the season and could offer decent offensive upside.
