Lazio announced that the friendly pre-season game against Avellino will be held behind closed doors at the Formello Training Center, continuing the lawn maintenance plan at the Mirko Fersini Stadium. As happened at the weekend, when the Biancocelesti beat Flaminia Civita Castellana 6-0, this match will not feature fans in the stands.
The meeting is scheduled for Saturday, August 1st, at 11:00 (local time), on the central field of the Formello Training Center. In a statement, the Roman club explained that the decision is due to ongoing work on the green roof of the Mirko Fersini Stadium, a venue usually used by the main team for training sessions and by the capital's youth teams. The intervention on the pitch, typical of this pre-season period, aims to guarantee the best playing conditions and safety throughout the new season.
Despite closed doors, fans will have several ways to follow the test against Avellino live. Lazio confirmed that the game will be streamed on the club's official website and mobile application, in addition to the Biancoceleste YouTube channel. There will also be broadcast via Lazio Style Radio — also on FM, on the 89.3 MHz frequency — and television coverage on the DAZN and Sportitalia platforms, thus ensuring wide distribution for those who want to follow the team's evolution in this preparation phase.
The duel with Avellino is part of Lazio's summer testing calendar and comes a few days after the convincing test against Flaminia, which served to gain competitive rhythm and give minutes to several members of the squad. At a stage in which the physical load is high and the automatisms are beginning to be fine-tuned, the option to play in Formello allows us to reduce travel and maintain the work routine, although it requires special measures due to the works at Fersini.
The event behind closed doors, although less desirable for fans who like to experience the team up close at this time of year, is seen as temporary and motivated by clear operational reasons. For followers, there is the guarantee of multiple official alternatives so as not to miss any particular match, on a Saturday morning that promises to offer new information about Lazio's current situation and the state of preparation for the season to come.
What happens next
After the test against Avellino, Lazio will continue its preparation for the new season, where the team is expected to show a solid performance in Serie A. Broadcasting the game on various platforms will allow fans to closely follow the team's progress, even without a physical presence at the stadium.
