Inter host Lazio after facing Coppa Italia elimination with the Biancocelesti who are the most in-form team in Serie A.
Antonio Conte said Inter ‘paid for the first leg’ after the 2-1 defeat on aggregate against Juventus in the Coppa Italia semi-finals. The Nerazzurri are out of the Coppa Italia with a 0-0 draw at the Allianz Stadium and Antonio Conte felt his men did enough to score against the Bianconeri on the night. “In my opinion, we should have materialized the chances we created and it’s a shame because after 180 minutes we saw two teams that fought until the end,” Conte told media. “We tried to score until the end because, with one goal, they would have had more difficulty. I’m sorry because these are matches that are played in 180 minutes. Today we tried in every way, with desire and determination. You make mistakes, you have to learn from mistakes and then start over and try again.”
Romelu Lukaku had a quiet day for the visitors, but Conte stressed the Belgian ‘gave his all’. “It was a difficult match, we were playing against Juventus, who have excellent players,” he said. “Romelu didn’t seem at 100 percent, but even today he gave his all. There are some moments when you are in better shape and others where you aren’t. He’s an important player for us.” Inter are out of the Champions League and out of the Coppa Italia, but Conte believes his men will ‘learn from the mistakes’. Inter can rely on a full squad with only one between Christian Eriksen and Marcelo Brozovic who will earn a starting spot in the middle of the park.
Inter (3-5-2): Handanovic; Skriniar, De Vrij, Bastoni; Hakimi, Barella, Brozovic, Vidal, Young; Martinez, Lukaku
Suspended: none

Simone Inzaghi’s side is unbeaten in the last seven Serie A games and has won the last five league matches in a row. He thanked Luis Alberto for returning so quickly after appendicitis, wants to keep the Lazio ‘momentum’ going, and reveals he received the contract offer. It took a Ciro Immobile goal to finally break the deadlock for the Biancocelesti’s sixth consecutive Serie A victory, beating Cagliari 1-0. “We knew this was a dangerous game, but the lads interpreted it in the best way and we ran very few risks at the back,” the coach told media, as usual having lost his voice by shouting during the match. “We’ve got to keep this momentum going now, as we’re still trying to make up for dropping so many points in the early stages when we were stretched thin by the Champions League and COVID. There was a period when we had just 13-14 players available. We managed to scrape through in Europe, but inevitably dropped points in Serie A. We knew that we needed a string of victories to make up ground and we’ve now won six in a row, but we’re not there yet.”
The Aquile are now level on points with Roma in fourth and are up against second-placed Inter next weekend. “We had two objectives at the start of the season. The first was to get into the Champions League Round of 16, something they hadn’t experienced here for 20 years. The other was to stay in the Europe that matters. There are five colossal clubs in the race with us, but we will have our say, as we always do.”
Luis Alberto was again absolutely furious when substituted, punching a corner flag and continuing to mutter as he walked his way back to the bench. “I think we should give him a round of applause because he played 10 days after appendix surgery, then today was only 16 days after. He did more than enough, as that kind of operation can require three or four weeks out at times.” Inzaghi was asked about his contract extension talks with president Claudio Lotito and revealed they are in the final stages. “I have given the offer, as with everything there is a negotiation process. The President has behaved very well with me, I’ve known him for 15 years. He made his offer and I think we’re at an advanced stage.” Thomas Strakosha and Luiz Felipe out of action with injuries.
Lazio (3-5-2): Reina; Musacchio, Acerbi, Radu; Lazzari, Milinkovic-Savic, Lucas Leiva, Luis Alberto, Marusic; Correa, Immobile
Suspended: none
Injured: Strakosha, Luiz Felipe

Seven points divide the two sides ahead of the Stadio Meazza clash. Lazio is unbeaten in three of the last four Serie A games after picking up only one point in the previous five fixtures but Inter has much more individual quality and plays much better in derby matches. Home team to win and both teams to score are our preferable betting options.

Daniel Garcia is originally from Basque Country, and as a kid who grew up just a few streets from Mendizorrotza Stadium, the choice of Deportivo Alavés as his favourite club is more than obvious. Because of his studies, he moved to Madrid where he graduated in Sports Journalism. Daniel plays football on the weekends, but that does not stop him from watching all La Liga matches. He believes that the outcome of a match can be predicted if all the parameters are analyzed well, including form of the players and weather conditions. Currently he is living in Belgrade, and is in love with a Serbian girl who works as a journalist at one of the famous Sport Channels in Serbia.
