AS Roma vs Lazio Match Update: Derby della Capitale

The Derby della Capitale is set for 17 May 2026 at Stadio Olimpico in Rome, as AS Roma host Lazio in Serie A Regular Season - 37. Roma arrive fifth in the table on 67 points with a goal difference of 24, while Lazio sit ninth on 51 points and a goal difference of 2.

AS Roma Availability

Roma have two concerns in attack. E. Ferguson (Ankle Injury) is sidelined and will not feature. Bryan Zaragoza (Knee Injury) is doubtful and faces a late fitness test. Both are listed among the attacking options, reducing depth behind the established front line. Crucially, leading scorer D. Malen, who has 13 goals and 2 assists in 16 appearances, is available, as is creative outlet M. Soulé, the team’s top assist provider with 5 assists and 6 goals.

Lazio Availability

Lazio are hit at the back and in goal. I. Provedel (Shoulder Injury) is sidelined, removing the first-choice goalkeeper from contention. A. Romagnoli (Red Card) is sidelined through suspension, weakening the central defensive unit.

Impact Summary

Roma lose rotational attacking options in Ferguson and possibly Zaragoza, but retain the bulk of their attacking output through Malen and Soulé. Lazio’s absences are more structural, with their main goalkeeper and a key centre-back sidelined, potentially exposing a defense that has conceded 37 goals in 36 league matches.
