Watch SS Lazio Vs. AS Roma Stream Live: Start Time, Preview, Watch Serie A Derby Della Capitale Live Online
It’s only the second week of competition in the 2019/2020 Italian Serie A season, but fans will already have the chance to witness what is perhaps the league’s most intense rivalry during today’s match up. Today’s match will see Rome’s two teams, SS Lazio and AS Roma, square off in the Derby della Capitale, or Capital City Derby, the Olympic Stadium in Rome.
After AS Roma had an intense, season-opening draw with Genoa, that side is most likely feeling a greater pressure to win. And Serie A fans are likely in for an exciting match as, according to Sporting Pedia, the two rivals rarely settle for draws. Only one of their last 11 derby matches ended with such a result, and three of their last five meetings saw goals from both sides. This high-scoring action seems likely to continue in today’s match, which should be a must-watch for any soccer fan.
The Lazio side is led by 29-year-old striker Ciro Immobile, who fired in 15 goals in 31 Serie A matches last season, per ESPN FC stats. Immobile recorded two goals in their season-opener last weekend, leading their side to a 3-0 victory over Sampdoria. SS Lazio is also managed by Simone Inzaghi, the second-longest tenured head coach in Serie A. He is entering his fourth season as Lazio’s leader, and this season, Inzaghi has been playing the “us against the world” card to motivate his team. As quoted by ESPN, he has taken to saying that “no one ever talks about us,” and using that as a driving force for his side.
AS Roma, by contrast, has a brand new manager in Paulo Fonseca, taking over his first Serie A team. They have also overhauled nearly every facet of their on-field game, adding a new goalkeeper, new fullbacks, new center-backs, and new midfielders to their line-up. This seemed to work out well offensively in their opener, as their talisman, 33-year-old Bosnian international Edin Džeko, managed to get on the board with a goal. But Roma also surrendered three goals to a Genoa team that missed relegation last season by only a single goal difference.
