The first derby of
the 2017/2018 season is played with the two teams that are divided by a single
point in the standings. Both Roma and
Lazio have played an excellent start to the season, which is why there is
even more curiosity in seeing how the derby will come out.
Roma will have to do without Karsdorp,
Emerson and Schick while Lazio will be without Anderson, Wallace, Caicedo and
Di Gennaro. However, the two teams should not be affected, since they are
long-term absences.
