Mancio expects Lazio triumph
Wednesday 13 May, 2009

Former Inter boss Roberto Mancini believes Lazio are favourites in this evening's Coppa Italia Final.

The Biancocelesti pushed Juventus aside in the semi-finals to book a date with Sampdoria at the Stadio Olimpico.

The Final has been touted as Giampaolo Pazzini and Antonio Cassano against Goran Pandev and Mauro Zarate.

“I think the strikers are decisive as the trump cards are in attack,” Mancini said in La Stampa.

“I reckon that Lazio will be more deadly going forward. Both sides aren't the best in all departments but the Aquile have a better midfield and are more dynamic.

“The game will be decided by the forwards and the Stadio Olimpico will make a difference making Delio Rossi's side the favourites,” he concluded.
