Nuno Tavares
LAZ
Leads team in crosses versus Udinese
Tavares recorded two shots (one on goal), 10 crosses (one accurate) and four corners and created two scoring chances in Monday's 2-1 victory versus Udinese.
Analysis: Tavares has started over Alfonso Pedraza in back-to-back games and was productive once again, pacing his club in deliveries, although with little precision. He'll likely be the top option as long as he stays healthy. He has sent in at least one cross in his three appearances, racking up 12 (two on target), assisting once and logging seven shots (two on target), four key passes and five corners.
Grabs an assist
Nuno Tavares assisted once to go with five shots (one on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one corner in Sunday's 1-0 victory over Genoa.
Analysis: Tavares was struggling with his shots but did manage an assist in Lazio's 1-0 win on Sunday. He will likely get some openings against Udinese, a team which allowed 48 goals in Serie A play last season.
Will miss Pisa contest
Tavares registered one shot (zero on goal), two tackles (one won) and five crosses (one accurate) and was booked for the fifth time in Sunday's 2-0 defeat versus Roma.
Analysis: Tavares had an okay showing in the final third, leading his club in deliveries, but with little accuracy, and had more than a few issues on the other end. He'll skip the season finale due to yellow-card accumulation. Luca Pellegrini will likely take his place versus Pisa. Tavares has had a seesawing role this campaign, featuring 23 times (17 starts), failing to pick up any assists after recording eight last year, totaling 99 crosses (21 accurate), 30 tackles, 18 interceptions and 13 clearances and helping secure three clean sheets.
Provides secondary assist against Cremonese
Tavares had one key pass, two crosses (two accurate) and three clearances and dished out a secondary assist in Monday's 2-1 win over Cremonese.
Analysis: Tavares wasn't as busy as in other performances but picked up stats on both ends and was instrumental in the equalizer, tilting the field with a bursting run. He has notched five key passes, 27 crosses (seven accurate) and 10 clearances in his last five displays (four starts), with one clean sheet. Instead, he interrupted a six-match streak with one or more tackles.
