Lazio President Claudio Lotito has revealed he’ll be cheering for Roma as they take on Bayern Munich tonight.

The Giallorossi host the Bavarian giants in the third matchday of the Champions League and can count on the support of one extra fan tonight.

Over the weekend the Biancocelesti patron had some barbed comments about Roma’s plan to build a new stadium at Tor Di Valle, but insists he’ll always support Italian teams in Europe.

“Will I watch Roma-Bayern Munich?” Lotito pondered to Radio24.

“I’m a lover of football, and I watch all the games. Watching your opponents is always useful.

“Who will I be supporting? You should always cheer for the Italian teams. The problem we have is the [UEFA coefficient] ranking.”

After defeating Fiorentina at the weekend, Lazio lie three points from a Champions League spot, and Lotito believes the Aquile can confound expectations this season.

“The Press say we aren’t a candidate for third place?

“We don’t look at media predictions. We leave it to other to spread the news or expectations.

“We want to measure ourselves on what we do. On facts.”
