The official Serie A website highlights the technical statistics of the matchup between Gennaro Gattuso and Ruben Amorim, marking their first official meeting on the bench ahead of the league clash between Lazio and the Rossoneri.

Gennaro Gattuso wore the Devil's shirt as a player from 1999/00 to 2011/12, making 468 official appearances and scoring 11 goals, winning 2 Serie A titles, 1 Coppa Italia, 2 Italian Super Cups, 2 Champions Leagues, 2 UEFA Super Cups and 1 Club World Cup. Afterwards, he served as head coach of the club from December 2017 to May 2019, overseeing 83 official matches with 40 wins, 23 draws and 20 defeats.

Amorim's words

"Gattuso is part of the club's history: talent alone is not enough. The passion he showed on the field is a quality we must find within our group. It is an aspect that has been missing in recent seasons and we must absolutely transfer it onto the pitch. Through commitment and dedication difficulties can be overcome."
