The Biancocelesti have a decisive game in the Champions League next week, but Inzaghi wants his men to fully focus on an important tie with newly promoted Spezia on Saturday.
“We know it will be a challenging match, we are facing a team that are playing excellent football,” Inzaghi said at a press conference.
“We must play an organised game. I must try to understand how my lads are and I will make the most suitable choices.
“It will be an important match; we must find the same motivation as have in Europe. Obviously, we pay for it in the League, but we mustn’t think about Club Brugge already, otherwise we will make other mistakes.”
Spezia have collected 10 points in nine games and sit 14th in Serie A, only four points behind Lazio at ninth.
“They have an excellent coach,” Inzaghi continued. “We must play an organised game. Spezia are an excellent opponent.
“They alternate moments of pressing with others that are less aggressive. It will be hard, many have suffered against them and therefore, if we play a careless game, we will risk a lot.”
But Lazio are still fighting for a place in the knockout stages of the Champions League and must claim at least one point against Club Brugge next week.
“The motivation should always be high,” the coach said. “The most important match is the next one. Right now, we have our heads and our hearts on Spezia.”
