Rome 26 April 2024 – There are fewer and fewer championship days, which is why the points are worth double. On the evening of Saturday 27 April, the Lazio hosts the Verona in a challenge valid for a match valid for the thirty-fourth day of A league. On the one hand, the Romans continue their pursuit of one of the top five positions, which would mean Champions League next season, while the Gialloblu are then embroiled in the fight not to be relegated and aim to maintain the top category of Italian football at all costs.
The Biancocelesti are chasing the three points, to put new pressure on Rome And Atalanta. The Giallorossi, with the success achieved againstUdinese in the recovery of the match of the thirty-second day, they flew to +6 compared to their cousins from the other side of the Tiber, a situation which, combined with the Roma advantage in direct clashes, heavily complicates the chase of the boys of Tudor. The Orobics will have the chance for their part when they recover the challenge against the Florentineto put further distance between them and the eaglets, but in the hope of some misstep on the part of their rivals Lazio has the duty to continue its winning streak. The place in Europe for next season is not yet certain for the Romans and although it is clear how Europa League or Conference do not have the luster of Champions, are in any case important competitions that offer money, prestige and a chance to win a continental competition, an event celebrated too little by the Biancoceleste fans. If we add to this the frustration of having suffered elimination in Italian Cup last Tuesday against Juventus, at the end of a match won after a great performance by Castellanos.
If at home Lazio there is anger and frustration for the elimination suffered in the cup against the Bianconeri, in the Scala family there is cautious optimism and a lot of belief in their own abilities regarding the possibilities of saving themselves. The last minute success arrived at the Bentegodi againstUdinese has given an exceptional boost in the standings and although the distance from the red zone is only 3 points, having reabsorbed theEmpoli and put behind him Udinese And Frosinone, gives hope to Baroni and his boys. The trip of Rome against the Biancocelesti is prohibitive on paper in terms of results, but on several occasions this season the Gialloblu have overturned the expectations of the day before: the Veronese were thought to be doomed after the stampede in January, but the team is still in the running and between the series candidates to maintain the category. Against the Lazio a trio of complicated challenges will open up, after the match in the Capital there will be home matches at the Bentegodi against Florentine and against the Turinbefore the away match against Salernitanawhere there will be three points up for grabs that could make the difference between the A league and the B series.
The referee appointment of the thirty-fourth day of A league assigned the direction of the race Lazio-Verona to Mr Davide Massa of the Imperia section. The Ligurian match director will be assisted by assistants Costanzo and Passeri, Tremolada will be the fourth official while Pairetto and Doveri have been indicated in the respective roles of VAR and AVAR. For Mass it will be the 28th career match with La Laziowith a balance sheet of 11 wins, 6 draws and 10 defeats, with three matches managed by the Capitoline players this season: the home defeat against Milanthe first leg derby drew 0.0 and the first leg semi-final against Juventus. There are 16 precedents with the Verona, with a score of 6 successes, 5 matches ended in draws and also 5 knockouts. Only one match this season with the Gialloblu by the Ligurian referee, when the Scaligeri drew 0-0 on that day Monza. In total, this will be the twenty-sixth direction of the season for the race director, the number 14 of A leagueto which he adds 8 international competitions (5 Champions League1 Europa League1 Conference League1 Nationals), 1 in Italian Cup and 3 in B series.
Probable lineups
Tudor will have to give up Gila, who came out battered against Juventus due to a muscle problem. In his place, ready to return to the starting lineup Farmhousewith Romagnoli And Patricin the three-way line in front of Mandas. Kamada, who suffered a calf injury, will not be there either in the finishing session on the eve of the Italian Cup match on Tuesday. Instead of him there will be Cataldiwith Guendouzi to compose the median, while Hysaj And Marusic they will act on the flanks. Zaccagni is back available, as is Immobile, but both should sit on the bench, at least from the first minute. In attack, in fact, we should still rely on Taty Castellanos Supported by Felipe Anderson And Luis Alberto.
However, there are few training doubts for Barons. In attack we are in fact moving towards the confirmation of Noslin as the lone striker, while Swiderski should take over during the match. It’s there on the trocar Lazovic with Suslov on the exteriors, while Folorunsho he will act in the central area of the pitch, also supported by the duo Duda And Serdar in the median. The four-way line in front of Montipo will be composed, from right to left, of Tchatchoua, Dawidowicz, Magnani And Cabal.
