Dzeko vs Immobile: who is the most likely to shine in the Rome derby?

Edin Dzeko and Ciro Immobile hope to claim the spotlight today as the striking duo feature in an Olimpico derby clash between Roma and Lazio. Both sides have had a very good start to the season, so much so they can both be regarded as possible Serie A contenders. Having both played 11 games rather than 12 so far in the current campaign.

Lazio and Roma respectively sit four and five points behind table leaders Napoli but both Eusebio Di Francesco and Simone Inzaghi believe a Champions League qualification can be the minimum target for their sides this season.

Ciro Immobile has had a stunning start to the campaign although his excellent for has not been replicated with the national team that was eliminated by the World Cup play-offs at hands of Sweden earlier this week.

Immobile has 14 goals in 11 appearances so far in the current campaign with a stunning 69.7 minute-per-goal ratio. Dzeko has done well but not as well as his Lazio counterpart. The Bosnian has however netted seven goals in 11 appearances, which means one goal every138.7 minutes.
