French referee Benoit Bastien has been assigned to officiate the upcoming Europa League clash between Sturm Graz and Lazio.

All four teams in Group F are tied on three points, putting the pressure on the Biancocelesti to pick up a strong result in Austria as they look to fight for progression to the Round of 16.

Lazio’s last outing in the competition was a painful 5-1 loss to FC Midtjylland, a game they’ll be looking to put in the back of their minds with a more positive showing against Sturm Graz.
