Lazio come into this with mixed recent league form, but the 2-1 win at Cremonese and the 2-0 win at Napoli show they can still put together a result against strong opposition. The concern is that they have also conceded three at home to Udinese and drawn 1-1 with Parma, which suggests they can be opened up if the game becomes stretched. Inter’s recent run is stronger overall, with wins over Parma, Cagliari and Roma in their last five league matches, and they have also been scoring freely in several of those games.
That said, Inter have not been flawless, with the 2-2 draw at Torino showing they can be held when the tempo drops or the game becomes more awkward. The head-to-head record also leans their way, with Inter winning three of the last five meetings and Lazio failing to score in two of those defeats. Match Prediction: Lazio 1-2 Inter
Form Guide & Team Overview
Lazio
Lazio’s recent league results are a mixed bag, with two wins, two draws and one defeat across their last five. The standout results are the 2-1 win at Cremonese and the 2-0 win at Napoli, but the 3-3 draw with Udinese and 1-1 draw with Parma show they have not always been able to control games.
There is enough in that run to suggest Lazio can compete, but the defensive record is less convincing than the results column might first imply. Conceding three at home to Udinese is a warning sign, especially against an Inter side that has been scoring regularly.

Inter
Inter’s recent league form is the stronger of the two, with four wins and one draw in their last five. They have beaten Parma, Cagliari and Roma, and the 4-3 win at Como underlines how dangerous they can be when the game opens up.
The only slight blemish is the 2-2 draw at Torino, which suggests they are not completely immune to being slowed down. Even so, their recent scoring record is solid and they arrive with more momentum than Lazio.

Team News & Injury Report

Lineups & Tactical Setup
Lazio (4-3-3)
Predicted lineup: Edoardo Motta (Goalkeeper), Adam Marusic (Defender), Alessio Romagnoli (Defender), Nuno Tavares (Defender), Oliver Provstgaard (Defender), Kenneth Taylor (Midfielder), Patric (Midfielder), Toma Bašić (Midfielder), Daniel Maldini (Attacker), Gustav Isaksen (Attacker), TBC (Attacker)
Lazio’s predicted 4-3-3 should give them a compact base in midfield, with Kenneth Taylor helping to link play and protect the back line. Daniel Maldini and Gustav Isaksen can then look to support the central attacker by breaking quickly into the spaces behind Inter’s wing-backs.
Inter (3-5-2)
Predicted lineup: Yann Sommer (Goalkeeper), Alessandro Bastoni (Defender), Manuel Akanji (Defender), Yann Bisseck (Defender), Denzel Dumfries (Midfielder), Federico Dimarco (Midfielder), Nicolò Barella (Midfielder), Petar Sučić (Midfielder), Piotr Zieliński (Midfielder), Marcus Thuram (Attacker), Pio Esposito (Attacker)
Inter’s predicted 3-5-2 should allow them to overload central areas and push Denzel Dumfries and Federico Dimarco high from wing-back. With Marcus Thuram leading the line, they can stretch Lazio’s defence vertically while still keeping enough control in midfield.
Key Battles & Players to Watch
| Lazio | Inter | Text |
|---|---|---|
| Lazio | Inter | Daniel Maldini will need to be sharp against Alessandro Bastoni if Lazio are to progress the ball cleanly into the final third. |
| Lazio | Inter | Kenneth Taylor’s work in midfield will be important against Denzel Dumfries, especially if Lazio are trying to stop Inter building down the right. |
| Lazio | Inter | Daniel Maldini is key for Lazio because he offers a direct attacking outlet in a side that will need moments of quality to trouble Inter. |
| Lazio | Inter | Marcus Thuram is key for Inter because his movement and finishing give them a reliable threat against a Lazio defence that has recently conceded goals. |
