Serie A: Lazio Welcomes Inter at Stadio Olimpico

-

Italian football giants, Lazio and Inter Milan, are set to clash at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome this weekend in a game seen as one of the season’s good bye fixtures as both teams are not in contention for Serie A trophy.

Though Lazio’s bid to crash into the Champions League spot was thwarted last Saturday, Coach Simone Inzaghi remains confident of a good performanc­e on Sunday as a win for Lazio will boost its morale for the Europa championsh­ip. It currently occupies the fourth position, but not so for Inter, as its lacklustre performanc­e this season has seen it languishin­g in the eight position.

The trouble for Inter Milan was however compounded as its hardcore fans walked out of the San Siro as they lost 2-1 to Sassuolo on Sunday. It was Inter’s fourth defeat in a row and has not won any of their last eight matches.
