SS Lazio vs Inter Milan Tickets

SS Lazio vs Inter Milan has all the makings of a mouth-watering tie when two of the very best teams in the Serie A go up against one another. Both teams are continuously near the top of the table and continue to battle their rivals for a place in Europe’s elite competitions; the Champions League and the Europa League.

I Biancocelesti are well-known throughout the continent and the rest of the world because of the success they have been able to carve for themselves, although much of it was produced a fair number of years ago. Arguably their most successful period, the 1990s saw the Rome outfit conquer much of Italian football as well as some of Europe’s top competitions. Despite having fallen from those days a little, the club continue to compete with the very best and challenge for domestic honours in club competitions such as the Coppa Italia and the Supercoppa Italia.

Inter, however, perhaps carry around a larger reputation than their Rome counterparts, with the Nerazzurri having won various competitions over the years and continue to go from strength to strength with each season that passes. With managers like Jose Mourinho, Antonio Conte and Hector Cuper having all been in the dugout at various points, it is no surprise that Internazionale have won no fewer than 30 domestic titles, including a minimum of 18 league winners medals. That dominance has also been carried forward into European competition, with at least three Champions League honours being etched into their history as well.

Therefore, an encounter between two sides like SS Lazio and Inter needs an iconic stadium to host it and the Stadio Olimpico is one that is certainly deemed fit to requirements for the tie. The 72,698-seater venue is the second-largest in Italian football - just behind Inter’s Stadio Giuseppe Meazza (San Siro) - and generates some of the best atmospheres that can be heard at a football match in the country when the two teams meet on the pitch.

Previous fixtures have seen a number of different results being recorded, however goals can generally be expected as one team appears to be able to find the back of the net almost always when games are played in the Italian capital. Final scores have ranged from 2-1, 0-3, 2-3 and 2-0 in recent meetings, therefore providing some precedent for future ties.

With the number of goals scored, it perhaps should not be a surprise as both teams have been able to call upon some iconic names in past fixtures, with the likes of Romelu Lukaku, Simone Inzaghi, Samuel Eto’o and Federico Chiesa having all featured prominently in attack over the years.

SS Lazio versus Inter promises to be a match that provides fans at the Stadio Olimpico with some top-quality action, which can help build the atmosphere that is experienced at the ground into one that will be difficult to replicate elsewhere.
