Team News

Lazio
Roma
  • Stefano Pioli has recovered many players from last week, but at the same time lost Stefan Radu to injury in the Coppa Italia final.
  • The manager will have to decide between a 4-2-3-1 formation without a proper playmaker and a 4-3-3 formation without Stefano Mauri.
  • Alessandro Florenzi is available and he will surely return to the starting XI.
  • Francesco Totti is expected to start, with Seydou Doumbia missing out.

Prediction

  • Lazio crucially won at Sampdoria last time out, but defeat in the Coppa Italia final will probably affect the Biancocelesti's morale ahead of the derby.
  • With a draw here, Roma would guarantee themselves a Champions League playoff spot.
  • Saying the duo enjoyed a similar season because they are separated by only 1 would be far from telling the truth as Roma and Lazio have had contrasting moments of brilliance. Roma were consistent in the first half of the season, only to throw away a huge advantage from January onwards. Lazio enjoyed some good runs of form, alternating with winnable games in which they failed to collect maximum points.
  • Lazio have been slightly better over the season and they are in better form than Roma, who are slowly improving, but are a shadow of the team from the opening weeks of the season. That said, the magic of the derby adds an unpredictable element to the tie that could push the score either way.
