Lazio vs Inter Prediction & Betting tips
More top game is hardly possible. For the first time in the long history of Italian Serie A, two teams will face each other on Matchday 24, who have collected a total of 107 points in the 23 league games to date. The previous record dates from the 2017/18 season in the duel between Naples and Lazio (106 points).
The capital city eleven from Rome will continue to hold the record. On Sunday evening there will be a duel between Lazio Rome and Inter Milan. The betting base table service shows that the home side with a strong 53 points are one point behind the Nerazzurri in third place.
Defending champion Juventus is between the two Scudetto contenders. The Sarri team could thus become the beneficiary of the top game and make the leap back to the top of the table with their own success. The game starts at 19:45 p.m. on Sunday evening.
Lazio Rome:
After eighth place last season and two defeats in the first five games of the 2019/20 season, no one in the Lazio Roma camp has even brought the word “Scudetto” in any way in connection with their own team.
However, football is known to be fast paced and in the past few months this tide has turned. Since the first leg defeat against the Nerazzurri on September 25, there has been no further league defeat for the team of Simone Inzaghi. This means 18 league games in which points were scored in a row. Only Liverpool has better statistics in the top five leagues.
The offensive around Ciro Immobile is absolutely outstanding. The striker shoots Serie A small and already has 25 goals of the season on his goal account. To do this, six more assists have to be counted. With 31 goal participations in 23 games, he is life insurance. But in the recent two league games Immobile was without a goal.
At home, the lull is now to be ended. With 15 “home goals”, Immobile is together with Cristiano Ronaldo the best home scorer in the top five leagues in Europe. With an average of 77 minutes to score, the next goal is overdue. In the cracker duel between Lazio and Inter Milan, a tip on a goal by the international is quite lucrative.
The strong offensive (53 goals in 23 games) is not necessarily at the expense of the defensive. Goalkeeper Thomas Strakosha has only conceded 20 goals so far. He last kept his box clean twice. There were three league games in a row without conceding a goal in March 2015.
Inter Milan:
There were no doubts about the goals at Inter Milan this season. With Italy returnee Antonio Conte, a coach was hired who has by far the highest salary in the league. Accordingly, success is an absolute must for the former head coach of Juventus and Chelsea.
In spite of manageable results in the last few years – last time Inter took a “podium place” in the league in the 2010/11 season – the vice championship would be a disappointment this season. The pressure is accordingly enormous, but the team shows that they are able to withstand this pressure.
In the season so far, the Conte-Elf have only surrendered once in Serie A. It was in the top game against Conte’s ex-club Juventus Turin that they lost on matchday seven. Since then, the Nerazzurri 16 league games in a row without defeat – third best value in the top five leagues in Europe. In the top game between Lazio and Inter Milan, with a successful tip on the draw, both series would continue.
After a short losing streak in the form of three 1-1 draws in a row, the Conte-Elf recently rediscovered the path to the winning track. After the success against Udinese Calcio, last weekend saw a prestige victory in the Derby della Madonnina – in this regard we suggest our readers the exciting derby guide – against AC Milan. Despite a 2-0 deficit, Inter won 4-2.
The reward of the Derby success is the championship lead that Inter regained from Juventus. With the duel at Lazio Rome, the next endurance test is on the program. Both the away record (9-2-0) and the fact that Antonio Conte have never lost to Lazio Rome (5-2-0) are positive. However, Inter may still have to go without regular goalkeeper Samir Handanovic due to a finger injury. Its use is only decided at short notice.
