A keenly-contested matchup is expected in Rome this weekend as Lazio search for back-to-back wins against Como.
The visitors arrive in Italy's capital after an unfortunate midweek defeat against AC Milan while Lazio return to home comforts after a hard-fought road win at Verona last weekend.
Como bagged a 2:0 win when these sides met at Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia earlier this season, but can they complete the double in Rome?

Lazio and Como have met on three previous occasions in Serie A. Both teams claimed one victory while their most recent encounter finished as a 1-1 draw.
Lazio team overview
Lazio return to Rome this weekend after edging past Verona 1-0 last Sunday, with a late own goal from Victor Nelsson sealing a hard-fought away win at Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi.
Sarri’s side had struggled for form prior to that result, picking up just one win from their previous six Serie A matches. Lazio now sit ninth in the table, six points behind sixth-placed Como.
An ongoing issue this season has been the inability to convert draws into wins, with I Biancocelesti having been held in seven of their last 15 Serie A outings.
Low-scoring outcomes have been virtually assured when Lazio are involved this season. Only one of their last 15 matches finished with over 2.5 goals scored.
Lazio manager Sarri has four expected absentees for Sunday’s Serie A clash, with Patric and Toma Basic ruled out, while Fisayo Dele-Bashiru and Boulaye Dia are unavailable due to AFCON involvement.

Como team overview
Como head into Sunday’s Serie A clash after a frustrating 3-1 home defeat to AC Milan on Thursday. Despite dominating large spells of the contest, Cesc Fabregas’ side suffered their first home loss of the season.
I Lariani have still enjoyed a strong campaign, winning three of their last five league matches (W3, D1, L1) and losing just three of their 20 Serie A games since the end of August.
Fabregas’ men remain sixth in the table, now five points adrift of fifth-placed Roma.
Head coach Fabregas has four injury issues to contend with this weekend, as Assane Diao, Jayden Addai, Alvaro Morata and Edoardo Goldaniga remain unavailable for selection.

A tight contest seems likely in Sunday´s Serie A contest. Under 2.5 goals is my best bet at the Stadio Olimpico.

- Lazio have seen under 2.5 goals in 8 of their last 10 home matches
- Como have seen under 2.5 goals in 6 of their last 11 matches
