Lazio could draw level with Roma for Scudetti won – as they may be awarded the 1915 title.

The Biancocelesti have won Serie A twice, taking the title in 1974 and later in 2000, but have always contested that they should have one more.

In the 1914-15 season, the Aquile should have played Genoa to win the regionalised precursor to Serie A, but the match was never played due to the outbreak of the first World War.

In 1919, after the conflict had ended, the FIGC awarded the title to the Grifone, given there was no way to replay the match.

The Federal Council has commissioned a report on the decision, and the matter will be discussed again at a meeting on August 4.

Lazio are said to be optimistic that they will be awarded the Scudetto, though Genoa would not be stripped of their title.

Instead, it would be deemed that both sides had shared the title that year.
