Lazio stand at the 8th position and they can’t be happy with this season in Serie A. Their main goal for this season is to reach the Top 5, but Lazio have 13 points less than 5th Inter, so it’s hard to believe that they can finish the season at the place which leads in the UEFA Europa League next season. After they have been eliminated in the Europa League against Spartha Prague they have nothing else to win and fight for, except this game, the big city derby. Their recent form is not at the high level. In the last 5 Serie A matches they have managed to win only once. In the last six Serie A matches between Lazio vs AS Roma, Lazio are still without win and they want to finally take all three points upfront their supporters.

AS Roma stand at the 3th position and their main goal is to finish the season in the Top 3 and qualify in the UEFA Champions League next season. Real Madrid eliminated AS Roma in the 1/8 finals of Champions League, so they have no other competitions, except their national league, to fight for. Visitors on this match are in the great form with 8 wins in their last 9 league matches (8-1-0) and without any doubt they are favorites to win this game. AS Roma have 10 points less than leader Juventus and it’s hard to believe that team from Rome can win the title, but SS Napoli have 7 points less, so they will do their best in order to reach the second position and qualify in the Champions League directly. Roma have amazing and on of the best attacks in league. They scored 62 goals in 30 matches this season (average 2 goals per match) and they will be fully motivated to beat city rivals.
