Lazio almost created history by finishing just one point away from archrivals Roma.

Even though the club managed only two wins from the last five matches, it was enough to see them narrowly finish ahead of Fiorentina in the fourth spot. Fiorentina looked like the team to beat in the latter stages of the season. They managed to beat Napoli 4-2 in the final game of the season to secure third spot ahead of Fiorentina. This is then get back into the Champions League – although not the highly lucrative group stages just yet – qualification phases for the next campaign.

SS Lazio midfielder Cristian Ledesma is aware of the threat posed by the AS Roma team that has been out of form for quite some time and he is afraid that they might just pick the derby match against their city rivals to come back to form. It is this backlash that worries Ledesma, one of the key figures in The Blues lineup this season, who are currently sitting on third position in the Italian League standings, seven points ahead of their city rivals.

And Ledesma knows that a victory against The Wolves is more than certain to qualify them for next season’s UEFA Champions League.
