There is going to be a fierce atmosphere at the Stadio Olimpico when the two big football clubs in Rome clash with each other this weekend. Roma have already lost twice at home this season although the supporters would be dismayed if arch-rivals Lazio follow in the footsteps of Atalanta and Napoli by landing three points.

Roma seem to be in decent shape coming into this match and have roughly a 50% probability of claiming three points according to the Serie A betting sites. Mourinho’s men bounced back from a 1-0 reverse at the hands of the runaway league leaders by securing a 3-1 victory away to Verona, with two late goals claiming the points.

Some punters will find it hard to oppose Lazio. After all, they have won three and drawn two of their five away games this season. Before a 3-1 home defeat against Salernitana, there was an unbeaten run of eight games in all competitions, with Maurizio Sarri’s side having enjoyed a 1-0 victory away to Atalanta.

Mourinho v Sarri on the touchline should be a game to savour, with Under 2.5 Goals catching the eye considering that you can get evens at the time of writing. It could be no quarter given considering how important the first goal of the match might end up being. Lazio will certainly be aware of how Roma are able to hold on to a lead.
