Lazio head to San Siro in fine form, aiming to extend their unbeaten run to six games. But they’ll face a tough challenge against Serie A champions Inter Milan.
The big question is: can Lazio pull off an away win, or will Inter continue their dominance?
Match Preview
Inter Milan clinched the Serie A title weeks ago, thanks to a superb season under Simone Inzaghi.
Their recent 5-0 demolition of Frosinone showcased their strength, bouncing back quickly from a rare defeat to Sassuolo – only their second loss all season.
Inter’s home record is nothing short of formidable.
They’ve racked up 14 wins, 3 draws, and just 1 loss at San Siro, boasting a goal difference of +33.
With 86 goals scored and just 19 conceded, they lead the league in both offense and defense.
Lazio’s latest 2-0 victory over Empoli keeps their Champions League hopes alive.
They sit four points behind the top five with two games left, and Serie A will offer five Champions League spots next season.
To secure a place, Lazio needs slip-ups from Atalanta and Roma.
Their away record is mixed, with 8 wins, 2 draws, and 8 losses, scoring 25 goals while conceding 24 in 18 matches.
Under Igor Tudor, the defense has tightened, evident from three clean sheets in their last four games.
Head-to-Head:
Inter has dominated recent encounters with Lazio, winning the last three matchups.
Earlier this season, they beat Lazio 2-0 in Rome and also triumphed 3-0 in the Coppa Italia.
Team News & Updates:
Lautaro Martinez is a key player for Inter, leading the league with 24 goals, which makes up 28% of the team’s total. He’s supported by Hakan Calhanoglu and Marcus Thuram, each with 13 goals.
Prediction & Analysis:
Considering Inter’s dominant form and recent success against Lazio, we predict a victory for Inter.
A win for Inter could potentially thwart Lazio’s aspirations of a top-five finish in the Serie A standings.
