Article body
S.S. Lazio forward Roberto Muzzi faces a race against time if he is to regain his fitness ahead of the UEFA Champions League Group G encounter with Chelsea FC at Stamford Bridge.
Twisted ankle
Muzzi twisted his left ankle in Lazio's 1-0 win against AC Chievo Verona on Sunday and faces at least two weeks on the sidelines, meaning he is a serious doubt for the Matchday 3 game against Claudio Ranieri's side on 22 October.
Minor crisis
The former AS Roma and Udinese Calcio player was replaced by Simone Inzaghi during half-time against Chievo and underwent a scan today, confirming his injury. Lazio are next in action away against AC Milan on 19 October.
