Lazio hosts Zenit in round 4 of the Champions League group stage. The match will be played on Tuesday, November 24th at Stadio Olimpico (Rome)
It is essential for the Roman club to play in the Champions League since it receives significant financial privileges. In the main tournament of Europe, Simone Inzaghi's men gained a victory over Borussia Dortmund (3:1) and tied with Club Brugge KV and Zenit. The quality of Lazio's game is dictated by the stability of the team and the good teamwork of the players. Now Lazio has enough skilled performers who can give results over a long tournament distance - Luis Alberto, Immobile, Milinkovic-Savic, Luis Felipe, Strakosha, Correa, Lazzari, and others. However, the Romans do not have the opportunity to improve their squad due to their modest financial capabilities.

Expectations passed reality, and the St. Petersburg grandee has not yet managed to show its best football in the Champions League. Now Semak's men are far from the desired promotion to the playoffs. Only a victory in Rome can improve the team's position. Any other result would be a disaster for the club from St. Petersburg. Zenit is fighting for the title in the local arena, but the situation in the RPL is no longer as comfortable as it was in the last season. Zenit's squad looks good, and it has enough skilled footballers with serious European Cup experience. The leaders of the team from St. Petersburg (Rakitsky, Barrios, Azmoun, Dzyuba, Erokhin, and Douglas Santos) are in good shape. More is expected from Wendel, Malcom, Lovren, and Lunev (Kerzhakov ousted the goalkeeper of the Russian national team from the starting lineup).
The game will be pragmatic and intense on every part of the football field. Zenit has nowhere to retreat, and Petersburgers will only play to win. Lazio will play attack first, which is a familiar game style for the Romans. The defensive lines of the opponents are far from perfect and make mistakes regularly. Therefore, there is every reason to wait for an exchange of goals scored.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score - yes
