Our predictions for Lazio vs Juventus
Match Prediction: Lazio 2-1 Juventus
Lazio's recent form suggests a team capable of high-scoring games, as seen in their 3-3 draw with Torino and 3-0 win over Genoa. Their ability to score against strong opposition could challenge Juventus, who have struggled to keep clean sheets, evidenced by their 4-3 win against Inter and 0-2 loss to Como. Lazio might exploit Juventus's defensive vulnerabilities, particularly if they can maintain the attacking momentum shown in their recent matches.
Juventus, on the other hand, have been inconsistent, with three draws in their last five games. Their offensive output has been moderate, but their defence has been porous, as seen in their recent results. This match could see Juventus attempting to control the game's tempo and limit Lazio's scoring opportunities, but their recent form indicates they might struggle to contain Lazio's attacking threats.
Form Guide & Team Overview
Lazio
Lazio's recent form has been mixed, with two draws, a win, and two losses in their last five games. Their ability to score goals, as demonstrated in the 3-3 draw with Torino and the 3-0 win against Genoa, suggests they can pose a significant threat to Juventus. However, their defensive frailties, evident in the losses to Roma and Sassuolo, could be a concern against a Juventus side looking to exploit any weaknesses.
