Lazio take on the visitors Spal at “Stadio Olimpico” in the starting gameweek of the Italian Serie A of 2017/2018 season. The match will be played in Rome on Sunday, August 20th.
Last season Lazio occupied the fifth place in the Serie A having earned 70 points with 74-51 goal difference and lost 0:2 to Juventus in the final clash of the Coppa Italia. This summer Simone Inzaghi’s club made precise signings, having bought Lucas Leiva, Felipe Caicedo and Davide Di Gennaro. There is only one loss in “Le Aquile” side: the defender Lucas Biglia left for AC Milan. As the match for the Super Cup demonstrated, Lazio are quite able to get alone alright without Lucas Biglia: the trophy was taken and Juventus were beaten with 3:2 scoreline, as a result, the Romans enter the new season in perfect mood.

Spal have overcome two divisions within two seasons. Last season the visiting side performed in the Serie B, having won it with 78 points gained and 66-39 goal difference. Spal are quite a modest club in terms of financial possibilities, therefore, even having promoted to the elite division the club signed mainly free agent or rent players. The strong point of the visitors is the team play but with many new performers having joined the team Spal’s football style may change.
The forthcoming game will become the first official head-to-head of the teams with the friendly battles not being counted. I believe that the club from Rome will show the new-comer the difference between divisions and will get a confident win at home turf.
Prediction for the match: Lazio to win with -1.0 Asian handicap.
