Rome's iconic Stadio Olimpico is set to host a blockbuster Coppa Italia final as Lazio and Inter square off for the second time in just five days. After last weekend's Serie A clash saw Inter cruise to a commanding 3-0 victory, the Nerazzurri enter this title decider with momentum firmly in their corner.

Inter, led by Cristian Chivu, are riding a nine-game unbeaten streak and looking to complete a rare domestic double—something they haven't achieved since 2010. A win here would also make them only the second team after Juventus to lift the Coppa Italia ten times. With their sights set on history, the San Siro giants are heavily favored to sweep this doubleheader.

But for Lazio, this match is about more than silverware. It's their only path to European competition next season, and Maurizio Sarri's squad will bring a different energy than they did in Saturday's defeat. Despite the odds stacked against them, the Biancocelesti can draw confidence from a strong late-season push, having won six of their last nine competitive matches.

Lazio's road to the final has been anything but easy. After a gritty 1-0 win over Inter's rivals AC Milan in the Round of 16, they survived nerve-wracking penalty shootouts in both the quarter-finals and semi-finals against Bologna and Atalanta. Teenage goalkeeper Edoardo Motta became an instant hero in the semis, saving four spot-kicks to send Lazio to their first Coppa Italia final since 2019—a year they last lifted the trophy.

History offers a glimmer of hope for the seven-time winners. This match is a repeat of the 1999/2000 final, when Lazio emerged victorious over two legs. However, they'll need to snap a nine-game winless run against Inter to claim glory once more. With everything on the line, expect a fierce battle at the Stadio Olimpico.
