Simone Inzaghi, the Lazio manager, says he hopes his charges will play with less pressure when they face Bayern in Munich.
“As I said, the Round of 16 was our target, we would’ve wanted to face Bayern with our full squad available," Inzaghi said.
"They too had injuries, but ours were more damaging in the grand scheme of things.”
“There will be time to prepare for Munich, but hopefully we can play with less pressure on our shoulders and less tension.”
Bayern are set to host Lazio for the first time in a competitive match.
Their first-leg encounter was their first-ever meeting in a competitive game.
