Player Focus
This is likely to be a defense versus attack match-up, with Lazio on the front foot and Roma reactive in their approach. Football predictions analysis demonstrates the key areas of the pitch for both sides. Lazio will need its midfield to be on top, whereas Roma will rely on Lukaku to lead the line and be clinical.
Matias Vecino
Vecino is the football pick to dominate the midfield for Lazio; the midfielder has four goals in 19 appearances, three behind top scorer Immobile. Vecino will orchestrate the Lazio midfield and allow them to dominate and create chances.
Romelu Lukaku
The Belgian striker is a pivotal cog for Jose Mourinho’s side. Lukaku’s physical presence, aerial power, pace, and movement will allow Roma to attack with precision when they have possession of the ball.
Tactical Analysis
Roma will retain their back-three approach, with wing-backs offering extra defensive solidity when out of possession. Lazio will retain a three-man midfield designed to boss possession and create chances through quick one-touch passing. The two tactical approaches are considered in 22bet’s pre-match football bet predictions.
