An encounter between Juventus and Lazio will be the central match of the upcoming Sunday in Serie A. The championship leader and the tournament favorite will host at home one of the contenders for a spot in Champions League zone. Bookmakers reckon, that the future guests practically have no chances on success in the game, so that is why they’ve put the Zebras as clear favorites.
Juventus let Roma come close, and currently there is only one-point handicap between the teams. Juve have 45 points, Roma have 44. The men from Turin won thrice in the last five matches, with two defeats. The defeats happened against Milan and Fiorentina, while victories were registered over Roma, Bologna and Atalanta in the Cup. Juventus have had 10 matches at home within Serie A, in which they won 10 times.
Lazio, in its turn, have gained some great shape. After 20 played rounds in Serie A, the Roman team have 40 points in the asset and is on the fourth position in the tournament table of the Italian championship. In the last five matches, The Eagles had four victories with one away loss against Inter. The victories were registered over Fiorentina, Crotone, Atalanta and Genoa.
After a defeat against Viola, Juventus will give hell to poor Lazio, which plays badly against the Zebras recently. The Romans are in a good shape, but this wouldn’t help the Eagles to bring at least one point from the north of Italy. In the last five personal encounters, Juventus won against Lazio six times and there was only one draw in a cup match, which eventually resulted in a victory of men from Turin.
Prediction for the match: Juventus to win.
