Unbeaten in the Last Serie A Matches, Lazio Look to Leapfrog Atalanta on the Table with a Win

Player Focus

Gianluca Scamacca

In the absence of Ademola Lookman, who is at the Africa Cup of Nations with Nigeria, Gianluca Scamacca has carried the load of scoring goals well for Atalanta. Football bet predictions back the Italian to be dangerous in this match as Atalanta look to extend their stay inside the top four.

Scamacca will offer Atalanta the cutting edge as they take on a Lazio side that has been in flying form in Serie A as they bid for the top four positions.

Cataldi, Guendouzi, and Alberto

Lazio’s three-man midfield is central to Maurizio Sarri’s approach to matches. The three are the controllers of the match, setting the tempo, keeping possession, and launching attacks with probing and penetrating passes.

Football predictions analysis shows that Cataldi, Guendouzi, and Alberto will be central to Sarri’s game plan for the away clash against in-form Atalanta.

Lazio will look to dominate the ball and press high up the pitch to win it back after they lose it. Maurizio Sarri’s men will look to control the match and dominate the ball to bolster their ability to create chances.
