On May 15, the Italian Serie A match between Roma and Lazio will take place. The former football player of Spartak Moscow Maxim Kalinichenko offers his forecast for this match.
In the Rome derby, two neighbors in the standings will meet. Roma will host Lazio at home. The two representatives of Rome did not quite get this season. This year, the king of Italy was not even Turin, but Milan. And both teams from this city were in the lead this season, but in the end it was Inter who took the Scudetto. But this is not about him, but about the Romans.
It would seem that the lower-level "Roma" should strain its geographical neighbor, but the team of Fonseca has too big a gap – nine points. This club is already guaranteed not to get into the Europa League. For now, Roma itself should be concerned about Sassuolo, who are only two points behind them. So this team from Rome definitely needs to win, so as not to fall even further in the table.
Kalinichenko believes that both teams are already tired, and they are unlikely to show too much effective basketball.
