This is the lowest ever in the Inzaghi era, a worrying sign ahead of tomorrow’s meeting between the coach and president Claudio Lotito.

Last season, Lazio had a goal difference of +37 – The Biancocelesti scored 79 goals, with 36 coming from Immobile, and conceded 42 times, a much more solid defensive record.

In the 2018/19 season, the Biancocelesti finished in 8^th, a disappointing position, but their goal difference of +10 was still superior to this campaign. That season they scored 56 and conceded 46.

The season prior, the Roman club had a strong goal difference of +40, the year they missed out on the Champions League due to a poor head-to-head with Inter. That season saw them score 89 times and concede 49 times.

Inzaghi’s first full season in charge of Lazio, the 2016/17 campaign, saw them finish with a goal difference of +23, having netted 74 times and conceded 51 times.
