Lazio vs Inter: Serie A Match Preview

Lazio host Inter at Stadio Olimpico in Rome on 9 May 2026, with kick-off at 16:00 UTC. In the Serie A Regular Season - 36 round, Lazio sit 8th on 51 points (goal difference 5), while league leaders Inter are 1st with 82 points and a goal difference of 51.

Lazio Availability

Lazio face issues in goal and at the back. I. Provedel (Shoulder Injury) is sidelined and will not feature, forcing a change between the posts. In midfield and defence, D. Cataldi (Groin Injury) is doubtful, while S. Gigot (Ankle Injury) is also doubtful. All three absences are injury-related, with no suspensions reported.

Inter Availability

Inter also have key concerns. H. Calhanoglu (Calf Injury) is sidelined, a major blow given his 9 goals and 4 assists in Serie A in 2026. In attack, F. Esposito (Back Injury) is doubtful, and Luis Henrique (Thigh Injury) is doubtful, potentially thinning Simone Inzaghi’s forward options. No suspensions are listed for Inter either.

Impact Summary

Inter’s attacking output remains strong with top scorer Lautaro Martínez (16 goals, 5 assists) and M. Thuram (13 goals, 5 assists) both available. However, Calhanoglu’s absence removes a high-volume creator and scorer from midfield. Lazio lose their first-choice goalkeeper in Provedel, which could be decisive against the league’s most prolific attack.
