Match Analysis

Lazio's recent form has been relatively strong, with two wins and a draw in their last three outings. Notable victories against Empoli and Genoa have been accompanied by a solid defensive display, as reflected by their three clean sheets in the last five matches. Their average goals scored and conceded in the last five games both stand at 1.4, but their expected goals conceded is notably lower at 0.748, suggesting a robust defense. Conversely, Juventus's recent performances have been a mix of inconsistency. A win against Monza was overshadowed by a draw with Bologna and a surprising loss to Parma. Juventus's goal-scoring form has been lackluster, with an average of just 0.6 goals per game in their last five matches. Their defensive play has been slightly better, conceding an average of 1.2 goals per game. However, their expected goals conceded is a low 0.656, indicating that they may have been unlucky in some defensive situations.

Final Prediction

Lazio's edge in this encounter could be attributed to their more consistent recent performances and defensive solidity, as evidenced by their clean sheets. A key factor to watch during the game will be Lazio's ability to capitalize on their sturdy defense and convert their chances, as Juventus will need to break through a well-organized backline to secure points.
