Lazio haven’t had a great run in their recent matches, fading off after a fine start to the season when they won their opening two matches. They have gone winless in their last four, a run they will be looking to stop when they host AS Roma in the next game. Lazio are seventh on eight points and Roma go to this game fourth with 12 points. In their six games this season, Lazio have no clean sheet and have failed to score in two of the last four. In the last three league matches, out of nine points, Lazio have collected just two, and they have conceded two goals in two of the three games. They scored late in the last two matches to salvage draws from losing positions and will be happy to be playing at home, where they have a 15-game unbeaten run in the league.

The Rome derby is a game both these sides take to, hoping to outclass the other and going to this one, Roma have form on their side and they also won the last outing pitting the two. Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Pedro scored the goals as Roma beat Lazio in May, and coming from a run of seven wins in eight matches they will feel more confident going to the game. After a 3-2 loss to Verona, Roma returned to winning ways with a 1-0 victory over Udinese in the last game. Tammy Abraham scored the only goal, to continue with his fine start to life in Rome but they had Lorenzo Pellegrini sent off in the match. Missing Pellegrini in this game will be felt; the forward has four league goals in five matches. In the league this season, Roma have four wins in five, and have scored in all. They have scored two or more in four of the five league games.
