Inter - Lazio predictions

Lazio will have little to hope for against Inter. The home charges are bursting with confidence and it would take a small miracle for the away team to take anything from this game.

Considering what they’re up against, Lazio can’t set their ambitions too high in this match. Playing as visitors at odds of 7.44 for an away win, calling them underdogs seems like an understatement.

The Nerazzurri are here after a surprisingly difficult bout at Hellas Verona last round. They recorded a narrow win in the end, but most predictions expected that they would have a much easier time of it. Instead, the first half ended inconclusively and they finished the match only 1 goal ahead.

Although Lazio went into their previous Serie A match as favourites, the 2:0 result still left a strong impression. They had issues taking control of the early game, but more than made up for it as the game against Cagliari progressed.

With 6 goals in their previous 3 Serie A matches, The Nerazzurri’s attacking players have been seeing a lot of success and top bookmakers online are backing them to continue the trend.

The most noteworthy bit of the away team’s recent records is that they scored more than 5 times during their latest 3 home games. The home-field advantage doesn’t translate into the match this Sunday, but their strikers are still fairly consistent.

Considering their strong relative form, the home team has a great shot at closing some of the 1 -point difference they need to take the lead in the standings.

Lazio are 3 points behind a Europa League qualifying spot. It’s too early to make any strong claims about their form this year, but most bookies are sceptical about their chances at The Nerazzurri. They’ll need to work hard if they want to end the season on a high note.

After the clashes we saw last season, there’s no doubt as to why the hosts are the favourites in this showdown. They clashed with The Biancocelesti several times and recorded multiple victories. More interestingly, these victories were quite decisive and each was won a comfortable goal difference.

With no injuries or suspensions to deal with, both teams will be able to give their all this Sunday.

Despite the risks involved, the strongest prediction in terms of value is an HT/FT bet that the hosts will take lead in the second half. It’s as risky as you might expect, though the 1.39 odds offer a decent return.
