Lazio and AC Milan will contest a 195th at the Stadio Olimpico this evening, with Massimiliano Allegri’s side hoping to put more pressure on Inter.
The Rossoneri will also aim to build on their advantage over the Biancocelesti built throughout history. Milan have 87 wins while the team from the capital have only mustered up 42, with the remaining 65 games ending in draws.
In recent history, however, this fixture has been very even in every sense of the word. In the last five games, Milan have won two, drawn one, and lost one. Lazio also knocked Allegri’s men out of the Coppa Italia at the Olimpico a few months ago.
With the chance having presented itself to trim the gap at the top to five points, this feels like a big night for the tapestry of the season. Below are the best stats ahead of the game, while we also have a pre-match preview and more insight on Maurizio Sarri’s side.
