Lazio welcome Pisa to the Stadio Olimpico knowing a solid result will cap their campaign on a high note. They sit ninth with 51 points after 37 matches and still carry plenty of attacking threat despite dropping three straight defeats. Losses to Roma, Inter in the Coppa Italia and Inter again in the league hurt, yet that 2-1 win at Cremonese and the 3-3 draw with Udinese show they can still score freely when the mood takes them.
Pisa prop up the table on 18 points and look destined for the drop. Their only previous meeting this season ended 0-0 back in October, but the gap in quality and motivation feels wider now. Lazio have Gustav Isaksen leading the way with five goals in 30 outings, while Matteo Cancellieri, Tijjani Noslin and Pedro have chipped in four apiece. Stefano Moreo tops Pisa's scoring with six, yet he will have few openings against a side that still fields dangerous options up front.
Suspensions and injuries have thinned both squads. Kenneth Taylor, Nuno Tavares and Nicolò Rovella all miss out for Lazio, along with Edoardo Motta, Mattia Zaccagni, Patric and Ivan Provedel. Pisa are without Antonio Caracciolo through suspension and face further absences from Daniel Denoon, Francesco Coppola and Mattéo Tramoni. The absences leave gaps, especially in Lazio's engine room, but their squad depth should still prove decisive on the final day.
Expect Lazio to dominate possession and create enough chances to pull clear. Pisa have shown little fight in the closing weeks and a side already relegated rarely travels with the same edge. Isaksen looks the man most likely to break the deadlock, though a clean sheet might prove tricky given the hosts' own defensive concerns.
