Lazio take on the visitors Feyenoord in the round 4 match of UEFA Champions League group stage. The match will be played on Tuesday, November 7th at Stadio Olimpico (Rome).
Lazio were the Serie A runners-up last season. They managed to surpass many competitors (though Juventus' ban was helpful), but it was unlikely they could overtake such a strong opponent as Napoli. This was another step in their progress. However, they have stalled, and now the Sky Blues find themselves in the middle of the table due to an abundance of missteps, gradually rectifying the situation. Their return to the Champions League wasn't particularly successful either. While Provédél heroically secured a draw at home against Atlético, and Pedro's late goal brought victory against Celtic in Glasgow, their journey in Rotterdam ended in a 1-3 defeat.

Feyenoord are navigating the season through European competitions. The Pride of the South became Eredivisie champions in the last season, a rare success in recent decades. But it's highly unlikely that Arne Slot's charges will be able to defend their title. They haven't slumped as badly as the struggling Ajax, but PSV have opened up a significant lead. It's possible that participation in the Champions League demands a lot of their energy. Upon returning there, the Dutch side began with a solid 2-0 win against Celtic. Later, they did suffer a loss in Madrid but put up a strong fight, leading against Atlético twice. Finally, they scored three times against Lazio (with a double from Jimenez), only conceding a late goal in response.
The teams played just a year ago in the Europa League. At that time, they exchanged home victories. The Eagles are considered favorites, albeit nominally. However, the Dutch guests are also quite formidable. We expect over 2.5 goals in the match.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 scored goals.
