Serie A is back in action with another round of matches this week as Lazio take on Inter Milan on Friday.
Both teams have impressive players at their disposal and will want to win this game to build momentum at this early stage of the season.
Inter Milan are currently in second place in the Serie A standings and have been impressive over the past year. The Nerazzurri eased past Spezia by a comfortable 3-0 scoreline in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this week.
Lazio, on the other hand, are in eighth place in the league table at the moment and are yet to hit their stride this season. The Biancocelesti were held to a 0-0 stalemate by Torino last week and will need to take it up a notch in this fixture.
