The UEFA Europa League group stages continue this week and will see Lazio host Lokomotiv Moscow at the Stadio Olimpico on Thursday.
Lazio began their Europa League campaign with a 1-0 defeat against Galatasaray away from home courtesy of an own goal from goalkeeper Thomas Strakosha.
Lazio had previously lost 2-0 to AC Milan in the league before their loss to Galatasaray.
Their winless run extended to four games in the league as they drew 2-2 with Calgiari and 1-1 with Torino. However, Lazio ended their winless run last weekend as they beat Jose Mourinho's Roma 3-2 in the Derby della Capitale.
Lokomotiv Moscow began their own Europa League campaign with a 1-1 draw with Olympique Marseille thanks to a late equalizer from midfielder Faustino Anjorin.
The Russians were fortunate to pick up a point against their French visitors as they were completely dominated throughout the game.
Lokomotiv Moscow are unbeaten in their assignments this season but have not won since their draw against Olympique Marseille. The Russian outfit have drawn back-to-back league games and will be hoping to win on Thursday.
