Lazio vs Inter: Team News and Expert Analysis
The Rome club lost out to Fiorentina for sixth place last year on additional criteria. But this season, they've regressed even further and certainly won't repeat their 2024/2025 result. They managed to defeat Cremonese, including the league leader in the last round, but then suffered a 0-3 defeat.
The Milan giants ended last season without any trophies. Under Chivu, there were also setbacks—in the summer club championship, the Italian Super Cup, and the Champions League playoffs. However, the most important thing is that in Serie A, after overcoming a spring slump, they pulled away from their pursuers and secured the title early.
In the cup, Sarri's men managed to surprise pleasantly. However, their only win was against Milan, 1-0. Then both Bologna and Atalanta were beaten on penalties after a pair of draws. For the nominal visitors, after easy victories over Venezia and Torino, there were problems in the semifinals against Como. After a draw away, at home they were losing 0-2, but starting from the 69th minute, they pulled off a victorious comeback!
