The Rome derby is here; AS Roma hosts Lazio with the two sides pushing for high finishes, each with an eye on European football next year. Roma have 58 points going to this game and are placed seventh while Lazio are sixth with 67 points. A 3-1 loss to Inter Milan ended Roma’s hopes for a Europa League slot and now they can only play for a high finish. However, they have an injury crisis at the team with a very thin squad to pick from. Roma capitulated in the second half of the season and go to this game with just one win in their last six Serie A matches. They’ve lost four and drawn the other. In their four losses, Roma have conceded two goals or more and they have one clean sheet in their last six matches. The team welcomes new coach, Jose Mourinho after this campaign and they’ll want to sign out with a win in their final home game this season. They have struggled a lot in their away matches and will be happy to welcome their Rome rivals. In 18 home matches in Serie A, Roma have won 12 and scored 40 goals in them.

Lazio are coming from a 1-0 win over Parma, which was their third victory in four matches. They have scored two or more goals in three of the last five matches but have also conceded two or more in three of the last five matches. The race for a top four place is congested but Lazio with a game in hand, still have a chance of making it there. Unlike their opponents, Lazio will have only Sergej Milinkovic-Savic on the injury list. The visitors have done well at home but have been poor away from home; among their remaining three matches, only one is set to be played at home. They’ve lost five of their last seven away matches in the league, and conceded two or more in these losses. In 17 away matches in Serie A this season, Lazio have managed eight wins.
