Lazio Form Guide: Recent Results & Table Position

Lazio have turned the corner at the start of March, producing better performances and earning important victories. Their purple patch included convincing wins over AC Milan, Bologna, and Napoli. However, their defeat to Inter on Saturday’s dress rehearsal served as a stern warning, but they remain 8th in the table.

While their league campaign hasn’t been memorable by any means, Maurizio Sarri’s men built a solid resume in the Coppa Italia. They began by toppling Milan in the Round of 16, before dethroning Bologna in the quarter-final after dramatic shootouts. In the semis, they drew 3-3 with Atalanta on aggregate, before prevailing thanks to Edoardo Motta’s surreal penalty heroics.

Predictions: Lazio 1-1 Inter Milan (Aquile Prevail in Shootouts)

In football, desire and determination can be as important as quality, tactics and conditioning. Therefore, a more tenacious Lazio backed by their raucous fanbase can be expected to cause more problems for Inter than Saturday’s bland version. But the million-dollar question is: Will this be enough to overthrow the best team in the country?

Based on what we’ve witnessed this season, Cristian Chivu’s side is far from unbeatable, especially on the big occasions. We’ve seen them fumble twice against AC Milan, lose to Juventus in the Derby d’Italia early in the campaign, and collect a single point in their two outings against Napoli, not to mention the humbling Champions League exit against Bodo/Glimt.

Therefore, if Lazio can pounce on the spaces left Inter tend to leave at the back to snatch a goal or two, perhaps they can drag the contest into the deep waters, and, judging by their record in this competition this season, they would certainly fancy their chances in the penalty shootouts.
