It kicks off at the New Balance Arena in Bergamo at 20.00 UK time (21.00 CEST).

You can follow all the build-up and action as it happens on the Liveblog.

The first leg ended 2-2 in Rome on March 4, and there is no away goals rule, so if it ends in a draw after 90 minutes, it goes to extra time and potentially even a penalty shoot-out.

Whoever wins will go through to face Inter in the one-off Final at the Stadio Olimpico on May 13.

Atalanta see this as their best chance of getting into the Europa League, even though unlike Lazio, they are still in the running via Serie A standings.

Isak Hien is still out of action, with Giorgio Scalvini, Sead Kolasinac and Charles De Ketelaere who are not at 100 per cent, but given the all clear to start anyway.

Nicola Zalewski and Krstovic complete the trident attack with Marco Carnesecchi in goal, as Gianluca Scamacca is still struggling.

Lazio have the usual lengthy absentee list to deal with, including Nicolò Rovella, Ivan Provedel, Samuel Gigot and Alessio Furlanetto, but Adam Marusic is available once more.

Noslin is preferred as the centre-forward, flanked by Zaccagni and Matteo Cancellieri.

That means Daniel Maldini is only on the bench against his parent club, as he arrived on loan from Atalanta in January.

Patric is picked in midfield as the playmaker, meaning Danilo Cataldi is still not fully fit.

Maurizio Sarri’s men are fresh off a surprise 2-0 Serie A victory away to Napoli, and had been leading twice in the semi-final first leg, fumbling it each time for an equaliser very soon after.
