Simone Inzaghi said Lazio hope to bounce back from a ‘disappointing’ Derby della Capitale and ‘want to extend our record at home’ against Torino tomorrow.

Roma ended Lazio’s hopes of qualifying for the Champions League next term and Inzaghi admitted the Aquile were not happy with the performance against the Giallorossi.

But the Biancocelesti play Torino at the Olimpico tomorrow and could bounce back immediately, before finishing the season with a trip to Sassuolo on May 23.

Roma ended Lazio’s hopes of qualifying for the Champions League next term and Inzaghi admitted the Aquile were not happy with the performance against the Giallorossi.

But the Biancocelesti play Torino at the Olimpico tomorrow and could bounce back immediately, before finishing the season with a trip to Sassuolo on May 23.

“We arrive from a great disappointment in the derby and tomorrow, against Torino, we want to honour the championship as best we can,” Inzaghi said at a press conference.

“It will also be the last home game of the season. We have a record at stake, we want to extend the streak of consecutive wins at home.”

Lazio aim for their 13th consecutive win at home in Serie A, but the coach is not sure how his players are coping with the tough fixture list.

“It’s early, we played on Saturday night. [Francesco] Acerbi will not be there. In addition to the disqualification, he had an injury,” Inzaghi said.

“Correa is also unavailable, while we must evaluate the others after today’s training and tomorrow morning’s final session.”

Lazio have two games remaining but have already secured sixth place in Serie A this term, as they sit eight points behind Juventus and six points above local rivals Roma.
