Two attacking teams brimming with ambition, goal-hungry strikers and a bit of intrigue is all we need as we gear up for another weekend of football action. The clash of Lazio and Inter will get the ball rolling on the third matchday of the Italian Serie A.Stadio Olimpico is the scene for the clash of two philosophies, that of Maurizio Sarri and former Lazio head coach Simone Inzaghi. Inter have won both of their games so far and sit pretty near to the summit. Lazio are eighth in the table and will be keen to give themselves a morale booster, especially in front of the home crowd.Lazio are back home tomorrow 🦅💙Lazio is going to need the support of the fans and that extra motivation on Friday against a strong Inter side.Definitely played a role in their win versus Bologna 🔥💙pic.twitter.com/olQUNiuaL8— Jerry Mancini (@jmancini8) August 25, 2022 Two proven strikers, Ciro Immobile and Romelu Lukaku will go head to head. The Lazio star got 27 goals in 31 Serie A appearances last season and has already got one in the first two matchdays this term. On the other side, Lukaku is keen to get back among the goals following his nightmare campaign at Chelsea. Lazio are developing into the side Sarri wants to create. They have to be looking for wins in games like this if they are to build on their last season’s fifth-placed finish. They can’t afford to drop points, especially at home. Playing Inter Milan will not be easy, but Sarri and his “Sarriball” merchants might surprise the Nerazzurri.##NAJAVA_MECA_6596641##The team from Lombardia will be without Henrikh Mkhitaryan, who is currently out injured. Raoul Bellanova is a doubt for the game, and there is little reason for Inzaghi to risk him. The Inter Milan boss has an otherwise full-strength squad to choose from and will be keen to mark a return to his former side with a win.The stage is set, the actors have got their uniforms on.
