Lazio faces challenges on their home turf
The Romans find themselves firmly ensconced in the middle of the Serie A table and struggle to make the necessary leap forward. In the recent Serie A fixture, Lazio secured a 1-0 victory at home against Cagliari, courtesy of an early goal by Pedro, thereby halting a three-match winless streak. Despite being in the ninth position in the league, the gap from the top quartet is a mere 4 points. The club performs well in the Champions League, having secured progression from the group stage. The fate of the top spot will be decided in the upcoming away clash with Atlético Madrid. The Coppa Italia is also a significant tournament, and here, Lazio aims to contend for the trophy.

The Grifoni exhibit a lack of notable stability
Genoa has returned to the elite of Italian football and endeavors to establish itself. Currently occupying a modest 14th place in the league, the Grifoni have a 5-point cushion from the relegation zone. In the recent fixture, they were unable to secure a victory at home against the unassuming Empoli, ending in a 1-1 draw. While harboring aspirations in the cup, it is evident that their chances of clinching the trophy are slim. It is wiser for them to concentrate on the battle to maintain their Serie A status.
