Roma have a mountain to climb when they meet city-rivals Lazio for the second leg of the Coppa Italia semifinal.
Lazio eased to a 2-0 win when the teams met for the first leg on March. Milinkovic-Savic and Ciro Immobile strike on either halves to ensure the Biancocelesti carry an insatiable lead for the second leg.
Roma have improved since the defeat in the first leg. They were going through a bad patch back then, losing 4 of the 5 matches in all competitions. The ship is now steady with 4 consecutive wins scoring a minimum of 2 goals in each of them.
While playing at home, Roma scored 2 of more goals in 19 of their 24 matches in all competitions. And 3 or more in 14 of them. Coming on the back of some blistering form, they do got what it takes to overturn the deficit. But only if they can keep a clean sheet here.
Lazio’s form coming into this match is equally impeccable. They are unbeaten in the last 10 with wins in 8. Away from home, they picked up 5 wins and a draw in the last 6. Other than Inter, the other teams in the series were teams struggling in the bottom half of the table.
AS Roma vs Lazio: Head-to-head
Roma were unbeaten in 7 matches against Lazio before the defeat in the first leg of the semifinal.
Lazio’s previous win was also in the Coppa Italia fixture. That was back in 2013 as an away team.
While playing as the home team, Roma were beaten just twice in the last 20 meetings with Lazio.
AS Roma vs Lazio: Prediction
There is too little to separate as both teams are coming on the back of some fine form. Roma have an big deficit to close, which will work in favor of Lazio in booking their place in the tournament final. With this being a derby, judging by the scoring form of the teams, BTTS look like a banker bet for this fixture. The full-time result could go to either side, but definitely Roma is the team with a slight advantage here.
