Juventus vs Lazio Prediction
Based on current form and key stats, Juventus come into this match with a slight edge, particularly playing at home where they have been strong. Their ability to dominate possession (averaging 62.71%) and exploit the 45-60 minute window to score goals could put them in a good position to break through Lazio’s defense. Kenan Yildiz’s creativity and Juventus’ solid defensive record (with BTTS in only 14.29% of their matches) suggest that they are capable of keeping Lazio’s attack at bay.

Lazio, however, will be a formidable opponent, having scored in 100% of their games this season. Valentin Castellanos will be a key figure for Lazio, and with Juventus showing some vulnerability in conceding late goals, the visitors will look to capitalize on any defensive lapses. Lazio’s dominance in set-pieces (averaging 7 corners per match) could also pose a threat.
While Juventus are favorites at home, Lazio’s scoring consistency means they will likely make this a competitive affair.
Predicted Scoreline: Juventus 2-1 Lazio
Juventus’ home advantage and disciplined defense should see them edge this match, but Lazio’s attacking threat means they are likely to get on the scoresheet. Expect a hard-fought game with both teams creating chances.
