SS Lazio vs Inter Milan

Inter Milan have lost just one of their last seven Serie A fixtures against SS Lazio (W5, D1). Inter will be highly dependent on former Manchester United striker Romelu Lukaku who has scored the most away goals in Europe's top 5 leagues. Ciro Immobile has failed to score in the last two Serie A games. He will hope to get back on the scoresheet during Sunday's crucial tie against Inter.
