Player to watch

Lazio: Pedro

Pedro has been an important member of Sarri's squad since leaving Roma in 2021. He typically plays as a forward or attacker and is noted for his speed, dribbling, and ability to capitalize on counter-attacks. His versatility has also been valuable, as he can play in a variety of attacking positions, including as a winger, forward, or attacking midfielder. His technical ability, vision, and creativity make him a valuable asset to the Lazio team. He has already tallied 5 goals and assisted this season across all categories.

Roma: Paulo Dybala

Paulo Dybala has a very specialized skill set that he uses well as an offensive midfielder or a striker. The Argentine creator brings a new dimension to Roma's offence and should play a significant part in the squad. His output should only improve with a squad where he is the focal focus of the offence. He can play off the right side, but he lacks the natural pace and 1v1 skill of a more conventional winger, so he is often forced to play centrally.

Match facts

  • Lazio took the reverse game against Roma and could win both seasonal matches against them for the first time since 2011/12.
  • Lazio have gone undefeated in their last five Serie A derbies at home, and they have only dropped one of their last ten Serie A games.
  • This will be the 180th Rome derby in all competitions since 1929/30, and the 158th in Serie A.

Injury and team news

Lazio has no injury worries as all of his first-team players are ready for this match. Stefan Radu will be unable to compete due to a muscular issue. Matias Vecino is likely to get the nod because he has been playing well in recent weeks. Bryan Cristante has returned, but Mourinho may choose to deploy Giorginio Wijnaldum in a more distant role. Tammy Abraham is also anticipated to make her debut.
