With just one point separating them, Roma and Lazio will prepare to meet up once again at the Stadio Olimpico on Sunday. Given that Napoli earned a 2-1 deserved win over an Atalanta side who have managed to break into the top four, a win for the Aquile could see them move up into a Champions League berth, while a win for the Giallorossi would ensure they continue to put pressure on reigning champions AC Milan.
Jose Mourinho's side come into this match in solid form, with just one loss from their last five Serie A games and have secured their spot in the knockout rounds of the Europa Leauge. By contrast, Maurizio Sarri's men have seen a downturn in their form, with back to back losses in the league and in Europe. That includes a shock 3-1 defeat to newly promoted Salernitana and a recent 1-0 reversal to Feyenoord, and as such, the Aquile will be hoping to end a frustrating run in this contest, especially when it comes to playing as the nominal "away" side.
Indeed, Lazio have lost of their last five meetings here when being designated as the away team, and given that they are missing two key players due to injury and suspension, things could get a lot more tricky for Sarri's side as they take on a team who have been in good form both domestically and on the continent as of late.
