Lazio captain Mattia Zaccagni is expected to be out of action for circa one month after tests showed a medium-grade lesion to his oblique muscle.
A statement from Lazio announced that tests performed at the Villa Mafalda clinic had shown a medium-grade lesion to the oblique muscle in his abdomen.

The report from Sky Sport Italia warns this kind of injury should keep Zaccagni out of action for at least four weeks.
It is a blow to the Aquile and the Italy squad, as Zaccagni had scored four goals with one assist in 20 games this season between Serie A and the Coppa Italia.
Lazio are still missing Gil Patric and Samuel Gigot, but signed Kenneth Taylor, Daniel Maldini, Petar Ratkov and Adrian Przyborek in the January transfer window.
