Lazio vs Napoli LIVE in Serie A: Head to Head Statistics, LIVE Streaming Link, teams stats up, results, Date, Time, Watch Live
Lazio will look to overcome their bad form after they slipped to ninth in the table following a goalless draw with Benevento in midweek.
Gennaro Gattuso‘s Napoli is fifth after somehow conspiring to lose against potential Scudetto rivals Inter last time out and travel to Stadio Olimpico equally in need of a win.
Simone Inzaghi‘s team has also suffered from the absence of many essential players, essentially forcing the Biancocelesti to limit their first-team rotations between midweeks and weekends.
Napoli has also thrived in Europa League but has been found lacking several times domestically.
Excluding an emotion-powered 4-0 victory over Roma in the wake of club idol Diego Maradona‘s untimely death, the Neapolitan side has lost to their other direct rivals – AC Milan, Sassuolo, and Inter.
That loss against the Nerazzurri in midweek was far from deserved, with Napoli spurning several glaring chances to take the lead before Romelu Lukaku scored Inter’s winner from the penalty spot.
