Milan vs Lazio Preview and Team News

Milan Team News

Milan host Lazio with one intention, and one intention only: to beat them and move up the league table. They’re now ranked seventh and will be keen on securing a berth for themselves in the UEFA Champions League next season. 

Currently, Milan have scored 5 goals in their last 5 encounters, but this cannot be seen as an encouraging sign. They would have wanted to do better in the final third, and create more chances. 

This can improve if their wingers or fullbacks bomb forward and supply dangerous balls into the box with the intention of helping their attackers find the back of the net. 

Rafael Leao has the most shots on target per match for his team (1.2), and he’ll be the player to watch out for. However, injuries to Alessandro Florenzi, Emerson Royal, Kyle Walker, and Ruben Loftus-Cheek will hurt Milan’s chances on Sunday.

Milan predicted lineup vs Lazio (4-2-3-1): Maignan; Walker, Thiaw, Pavlovic, Hernandez; Reijnders, Fofana; Pulisic, Felix, Leao; Gimenez.

Lazio Team News

Lazio are one of the few historic teams in Serie A and represent the capital city of Rome with all their might. Currently, they’re fifth in the table with 47 points. They’re six clear of their opponents, and will be keen on getting as far ahead as possible. 

Having scored 9 goals in their last 5 events, Lazio will feel confident of their chances in the final third. They won’t get too scared of the man-marking and zonal defensive tactics used by the hosts. Their attackers, however, will have to be careful of the high line played by Milan as it’s designed to catch them offside.

The guests average 1.8 goals per match and their star player Nuno Tavares is ranked 3rd in big chances created in the competition (9). He’ll be expected to be at the helm for them in this game as well. 

Valentin Castellanos and Elseid Hysaj are among the few players who will be unavailable due to injuries this weekend.

Lazio predicted lineup vs Milan (4-2-3-1): Mandas; Lazzari, Gila, Romagnoli, Tavares; Guendouzi, Rovella; Isaksen, Pedro, Zaccagni; Noslin.

Milan vs Lazio Prediction

• Pick: Milan to win or draw
• Odds: 1.336 (22Bet)
• Score prediction: Milan 2-2 Lazio

Neither Milan nor Lazio are the overwhelming favourites for Sunday, but we expect the hosts to either win or draw. They’ve beaten or tied against the visitors in 27 out of the 36 past games recorded between them. Their current form in the league makes them highly primed to do so yet again. 

The previous encounter between these two teams took place on August 31st and ended in a 2-2 draw. Overall, the home squad have beaten or drawn against Lazio on 16 out of the 19 occasions they have played at San Siro. But as they’re currently unbeaten in their last four matches, we think their record will improve significantly.

Milan vs Lazio Prediction, Betting Tip

• Pick: Both teams to score
• Odds: 1.336 (22Bet)

Both sides have a lot of top attackers in their ranks, and it’s anticipated that they’ll get on the scoresheet. Our pick for this event is that both teams will score. 

Currently, Milan have scored in four out of their last five encounters while Lazio have only done so in three. 

Tijjani Reijnders has created the most big chances for his squad (6), and he’ll be seen as a dangerous proposition in the final third by his opponents.

If the visitors manage to keep him quiet for some time, the hosts will try to change their tactics and try to play the ball into more dangerous areas. 

All in all, this promises to be an exciting clash for the neutral spectator because it pits teams from two historic cities of Italy (Milan and Rome) against each other.
