Napoli preview: Frustrated Partenopei
Antonio Conte has got several key players back fit, and the Neapolitans had discovered some form but, just as they sought to put pressure on champions-elect Internazionale, Napoli have stumbled.
Going a goal down inside a minute at the Ennio Tardini against Parma last weekend, Napoli could only snatch a 1-1 draw mid-way through the second-half with an excellent equalised scored by Scott McTominay.
Lazio preview: Indifferent Lazio
Lazio come into this one on the back of a slender 1-0 defeat to Fiorentina at the Artemio Franchi in Florence with a 28th minute winner scored by Germany international wing-back Robin Gosens.
The Romans have struggled throughout the campaign with difficulties off the pitch but Maurizio Sarri's side had shown some signs of improvement before the March international break a few weeks ago.

Napoli vs Lazio prediction
That improvement has since immediately subsided upon their return and the Laziale are drifting towards an underwhelming mid-table finish in Italy's top-flight. Napoli, especially with their home advantage, should be expected and backed to come out on top but, such is their fairly frustrating Conte-led style of football, a low-scoring encounter seems likely for this one down in Campania.
