Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Inter will be aiming to retain top position in the Serie A standings when they host Lazio to their Stadio Giuseppe Meazza on Sunday evening. The Nerazzurri were not in action in midweek as their clash with Bologna was postponed, meaning that tired legs should not prove to be a big problem for the title holders. Halkan Calhanoglu is banned for a match, while Edin Dzeko has been tested positive for coronavirus.
As always, a man to watch in the home team will be Argentina striker Lautaro Martinez, who is likely to prove a handful for the opposition back-line. The Biancocelesti, on the other hand, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 3-3 draw with Empoli, and we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling Inter’s party in Milano. Defender Francesco Acerbi should be the only absentee in the away team.
