Juventus vs Lazio Preview
Juventus
Juventus conceded the first goal in Serie A against Cagliari from the penalty spot in the last round. What seemed to be an easy victory for the hosts, turned out to be a difficult bout, and Juve are now winless in their previous three home matches.
It is not surprising that under Thiago Motta, the Old Lady has significantly changed its playing style. Now, they are more focused on the attack, and Dušan Vlahović is in fantastic form, scoring five goals in the last three matches.
Juventus are facing a serious injury blow prior to the match. Some of the most notable absentees include Bremer, Francisco Conceição, Nico Gonzalez and Teun Koopmeiners.
Lazio
Under Marco Baroni’s leadership, Lazio has become an entertaining team to watch. Despite conceding an early goal against Empoli and missing a penalty, they still managed to win the encounter (2-1). It was their fourth consecutive victory at all tournaments.
While having a heavy start to the season, Lazio now occupy the fourth place in Serie A, tied with Juventus and are one of the main contenders to finish in the top four.
Taty Castellanos has scored three goals this Serie A campaign, and the Argentinean is one of the squad’s key players. As for missing footballers, only Samuel Gigot and Patric are questionable.
Bet hereJuventus vs Lazio Prediction
- Pick: Juventus to Win
- Odds: 2.01 (22Bet)
- Score prediction: Juventus 2-0 Lazio
Juventus were expected to win easily against struggling Cagliari, but they lost points in the last minutes. Now they are three points behind the leaders Napoli and Thiago Motta’s team will try to bounce back immediately.
If we take a look at the past six H2H matches at home for Juventus, they have managed to win five and draw one. Usually, the Old Lady plays well against Lazio on home turf and will start as favourites in this game.
Despite missing several starting players, we anticipate Juve to seize the initiative from the first minute. Thiago Motta knows how to adapt his style to different teams and get a desirable result. Our prediction for this game would be Juventus to win.
Juventus vs Lazio Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Under 2.5 Goals
- Odds: 1.65 (22Bet)
Juve may have improved drastically in the offence, but they are a tough force in the defence as well. Before the match with Cagliari, they have not conceded a single goal in six matches, which is remarkable.
Against high-profile clubs, Juve try to balance their gameplay. We think that in this principal clash, both clubs will focus on the defence. Lazio will wait for the opponents’ mistakes and concentrate on counterattacks.
All matches featuring Lazio this season ended with at least three goals scored. However, they now face a much stronger rival. As we anticipate a careful performance from the teams, our other pick is under 2.5 goals.
