⚔️ Coppa Italia, who’ll win... 3️⃣ reasons for Lazio and 3️⃣ for Inter 👀

It’s the day of the Coppa Italia grand final, the rematch of the clash from three days ago, once again played at the Olimpico. However, the 0-3 win with which the Italian champions steamrolled Sarri’s team should not be misleading: tonight’s match will be far tougher for Lautaro and his teammates.

Compared to Saturday’s match, in fact, the Nerazzurri will also have to deal with the home crowd support and the huge motivation of the Biancocelesti, who have the chance to bring a trophy back to Rome six years after the Supercoppa won with Simone Inzaghi on the bench.

In short, this won’t be a foregone final.

⚪️🔵 Why Lazio will win

In one of the most difficult seasons in recent memory, Sarri has the chance to give the entire Lazio fanbase a huge moment of joy. On top of that, winning the Coppa Italia would guarantee qualification for the Europa League, a goal that until now had barely even seemed possible. Extra motivation, in other words;
Lazio know how to hurt Inter. A year ago, Pedro’s last-gasp equalizer at San Siro effectively handed the Scudetto to Napoli. That draw set off Inzaghi’s nightmare finish to the season;
When they’re the underdogs, this team rises to the occasion. Their Coppa Italia run says it all: a win over Milan in the round of 16 (after losing to them in the league just a few days earlier, just like tonight), then Bologna in the quarter-finals and Atalanta in Bergamo in the semi-finals. Watch out.

⚫️🔵 Why Inter will win

The Nerazzurri are clearly the stronger side. Inter have been at the top for a while now, competing on every front. Sometimes silverware has come, other times disappointment, but in recent years the Nerazzurri have always fought to win, and that says a lot about the quality of the squad;
Chivu gets Thuram back, and he should start from the first minute. In this final stretch of the season, no one has been more decisive than the Frenchman: 6 goals and 3 assists in the last 7 matches. A sure thing;
The motivation matters here too. For the first time since the 2010 Treble, the Nerazzurri can achieve the Serie A–Coppa Italia double. Back then Chivu was on the pitch; today he’s on the bench. Cristian knows how it’s done.
