Objective: to qualify in first place
Our team faces the Italian side in the matchday 6 of the UEFA Champions League Group Stage.
The Cívitas Metropolitano is ready for our clash against Lazio in the sixth and final matchday of the Champions League group stage. With both teams already qualified for the last 16 of Europe's top competition, the match will decide who will finish first and who will finish second in Group E.
Our side needs at least a draw to secure top spot, while the Italians only need three points to overtake us.
Any of the results we have had in the 5 previous matches in this group stage would be enough for us to be first, as we are unbeaten in Europe, with 3 wins and two draws.
Precisely, one of the draws was against Lazio in their stadium (1-1) on the opening day of the current group stage. However, the historical duel against Lazio is quite positive for us: of the 5 times we have met, we have won on 3 occasions, drawn on 2 and lost only once.
Álvaro Morata, with 5 goals, and Antoine Griezmann, with 4 goals, are so far our main attacking weapons in the Champions League and keeping their luck in front of goal will be a key factor in achieving our objective.
