Prediction: Lazio 2-0 Lokomotiv
Lazio got back to winning ways after successive draws in a thrilling derby and will look to build on that performance.
Lokomotiv is in a spot of bother after a hat-trick of draws and head into this with a lack of confidence.
We expect the Italian side to find a way through and open their account in the Europa League.
Players to watch out for: Milinkovic-Savic, Pedro, Beka and Kamano.
