Siviglia blow for Lazio

Lazio defender Sebastiano Siviglia faces around a month of inactivity due to injury.

Lazio defender Sebastiano Siviglia faces around a month of inactivity due to a muscle injury.

Siviglia picked up the problem prior to Sunday's Serie A meeting with Fiorentina and was forced to miss the 1-0 win.

Tests have subsequently shown that Siviglia has strained a muscle and will need several weeks on the sidelines.

The stopper's absence will be a blow to Lazio coach Delio Rossi ahead of this weekend's derby against Roma at Stadio Olimpico.

Siviglia joined Lazio on a permanent basis just before the close of the transfer window after a loan spell with the club from Parma last season.
