Roma vs Lazio –It’s time for another Derby Della Capitale, as Roma and Lazio will square off in the Stadio Olimpico on Sunday.
An introduction to the city derby against ferocious rivals could not have been worse, in Lazio’s opinion. Seven days earlier, they were humiliated 1-3 at home by Salernitana, among others. The defeat dropped Maurizio Sarri’s team to fifth place in the standings.
Going into the Derby Della Capitale, they are now one point behind Roma. With only eight goals allowed in the first twelve games, Lazio has one of the greatest defensive records in the entire league.
The team’s trust in its back line going into such a crucial match, though, can be called into question after they conceded three goals against Salernitana their last time out.
I Biancocelesti’s issues arise at the other end because they are missing their talisman Ciro Immobile (out through injury).Can Roma under Jose Mourinho capitalise on Immobile’s absence and win the derby?
Even though La Lupa didn’t play well against Verona on Monday, they were still able to win thanks to a pair of late goals from replacements Cristian Volpato and Stephan El Shaarawy.
