Lazio vs Inter prediction 13.05.2026 | Coppa Italia

After finishing second in the 2022/23 season, Lazio had two underwhelming seasons, finishing 7th and even missing Europe last year. This year, Biancocelesti are once again in a similar situation, sitting in 8th place and without a chance to move into European spots, as 7th-placed Atalanta are seven points away with two rounds to go. So, their only chance of securing Europe is through the Cup. 

However, Lazio's season has been marked by fans boycotting games in protest against president Lotito. The fans feel there is a lack of ambition and transfers, and they are calling for change. In recent games, we often saw fewer than 5000 people in their games. Still, according to speculations, the fans will make an exception for the Coppa Italia, and we expect a full Stadio Olimpico.

Mattia Zaccagni, who missed the previous game against Inter due to a minor injury, should recover on time for the Coppa Italia. 

In early May, Inter mathematically secured their 21st Scudetto. Even though they were dominant in Serie A, averaging almost 2.4 points per game, their season has been ruined by an unexpected opponent in the Champions League. Nerazzurri were outplayed by Bodo/Glimt and were eliminated from the competition in the 1/16 Finals on a 5:2 aggregate. 

Throughout the season, Inter looked well, but it seems they are playing their best football at the moment and are deservedly entering the Coppa Italia Finals as significant favorites.

According to Italian media reports, Inter could miss Marcus Thuram for the upcoming game against Lazio. The 28-year-old picked up an injury in training and is likely to miss the match. Additionally, Hakan Calhanoglu should remain sidelined, while Francesco Pio Esposito is listed as questionable.
