Juventus vs Lazio prediction
THE FORECAST
Lazio arrive in significantly better form (WWDWW, 2nd in Serie A) against a Juventus side plagued by an enormous injury list that strips them of multiple key players including Yildiz, Cambiaso, Locatelli, Gatti and Kolo Muani's potential strike partner options, while Juventus also carry rotation risk having played Europa League just three days ago with another EL fixture in four days. Lazio come in well-rested with seven days since their last match and Gattuso needs only minor adjustments, giving them a clear physical and tactical edge despite their own absentees. Mild weather conditions are neutral for both sides, and with Lazio's superior xG metrics (1.8 GF, 0.7 GA) and clean sheet record matching Juventus's, the visitors look the more complete and fresher unit to take all three points at the Allianz Stadium.
