Serie A side Lazio will square off against Triestina in a club friendly on Friday.
Lazio will be in high spirits after an emphatic 11-0 win over Belluno. Luis Alberto scored a hat-trick, while Felipe Caicedo and Vedat Muriqi contributed with a brace each.
Adam Marusic, Elsied Hysaj, Jean Daniel-Akpa Akpro and Felipe Anderson also registered their names on the scoresheet.
Lazio finished the 2020-21 Serie A campaign in sixth place and will play in the Europa League this year.
Meanwhile, Triestina played extremely well in their last game, keeping Roma at bay for the majority of the game. They ended up losing the tie 1-0 but should be proud of their valiant effort against a much stronger side.
