Lazio equalled a 21-year club record for staying undefeated but missed the chance to move second in Serie A, being held to a goalless draw by Hellas Verona.
The match had been rescheduled from last December, when Lazio beat Juventus to win the Italian Super Cup in Saudi Arabia.
Simone Inzaghi's side closed to within a point of second-placed Inter Milan.
The Romans are four points behind leaders Juventus and 11 points clear of fourth-placed Atalanta who occupy the final Champions League berth, ahead of Roma on goal difference.
"The game was intense. Despite the disappointing result, we came away satisfied," said Inzaghi.
"We had 27 shots on goal, hit the post twice. I can't ask the team for more.
"Results count, but so do performances, and the lads gave it everything."
