Serie A, odds: Rome-Lazio derby on Saturday

by admin

Saturday will play the derby which will have an important weight on the European goals of the two teams. Lazio won the first leg 3-0

The derby of the Capital comes at a crucial moment for the journey of the two teams. The Giallorossi, in the last matches with Paulo Fonseca as coach before the arrival of José Mourinho, no longer have the possibility of finishing sixth, but must defend with their teeth the last useful place to go to Europe (the qualifying rounds for the new Conference League) from the attack of Sassuolo. The Biancocelesti, on the other hand, still have three games (including the recovery against Turin) to try to win a place in the Champions League, the fourth, which is currently 6 points away and is occupied by Napoli.
