#3 SSC Lazio vs Red Bull Salzburg

A rude awakening for the great Austrian dream?
A rude awakening for the great Austrian dream?

Red Bull's second child, the Austrian champions have already surpassed expectations by reaching this stage, more so after beating Borussia Dortmund in the last round. So despite their small stature in Europe, have made it clear they aren't here to merely meander and walk away. Red Bull Salzburg are in the race, firmly, and Lazio shouldn't be taking anything for granted.

Le Aquile are the most prolific in Serie A behind only Juventus, and trail Arsenal and the now eliminated Zenit on the same count in Europa League. Led by a regurgitated Ciro Immobile, Lazio have been firing at all cylinders this season and look primed to acquire a Champions League place. They are the favourites here too, but even if they were to win, that would be a Pyrrhic one as Salzburg are the only team to remain unbeaten from the start, and would be a tough nut to crack.

Plenty goals on the cards, though there's also a possibility of the contest going right down to the wire.
