Under Marco Baroni’s guidance, Lazio has been demonstrating strong form in the Europa League, recently earning a crucial 3-1 away victory over Ajax. This marked the Roman club’s fifth win in the current campaign, with the team consistently finding the back of the net at least twice in every match.
Throughout the group stage, Lazio has dropped points on only one occasion—a 0-0 draw against Ludogorets. With 16 points, they comfortably sit atop the standings, having already secured a spot in the playoffs. A victory in the upcoming clash would guarantee them direct advancement to the Round of 16. The team heads into this match following a commanding 3-0 triumph over Verona in Serie A, where they maintain 4th position in the league table.
Meanwhile, Real Sociedad delivered an impressive 3-0 win over Dynamo Kyiv in their previous Europa League outing. This marked their second consecutive victory, both achieved without conceding a goal. Notably, it was the first time this season that the Spanish side scored more than two goals in a match.
Currently sitting in 12th place with 10 points, Real Sociedad remains firmly in contention for a playoff spot regardless of the result in Rome. The team has proven resilient on the road, avoiding defeat in 6 of their last 8 Europa League away matches, with 4 wins and 2 draws. However, over the weekend, the Basques suffered a surprising 0-1 loss to Valencia, leaving them in 7th place in La Liga.
