Lazio hosts Verona in round 17 of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Wednesday, February 5th at Stadio Olimpico (Rome)
Having 48 points after 20 championship matches played, Lazio is still third in the standings. But it is only two points behind the second Inter and has a match in reserve. And the Eagles are five points behind leading Juventus. So, the situation in the standings may well change after the upcoming game. Firstly, we may see a new vice-leader, and secondly, the gap to the leader may reduce to two points.

Verona showed a great start of this year. Having played four matches in the championship, it gained three victories and tied with Bologna away. Verona divides the equator of the standings. Regarding competitors, it has played one match less. And the Mastiffs even claim a place in the playoffs for a ticket to the Europa League. But the calendar is very difficult. And the visit to Rome does not bode well for the Mastiffs.
Lazio has never lost in 10 home matches of the tournament. The team won eight of them and let Atalanta and compatriots from Roma go in peace. Verona won’t get off lightly. The Romans won in the last five head-to-head matches against the Mastiffs. Over the past 20 years, rivals played eight times in Rome and Lazio gained seven victories and only one draw. Based on the current shape of the Eagles, there is no doubt in their next victory. But I will bet on the hosts’ productivity. Lazio scored 47 goals in 20 rounds. Eight out of 10 home games ended with at least two goals scored. I think Lazio will score two goals this time either.
Prediction for the match: Lazio to score over 1.5 goals
