Juventus take on the visitors Lazio in the round 24 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Sunday, February 8th at Allianz Stadium (Turin).
Juventus have recently been entrusted to young former players, and that experiment has brought little success. Thiago Motta, after shining with Bologna, completely failed with a giant club. Tudor started promisingly after returning to Turin, but in reality his only real achievement was winning the battle with Roma for fourth place in Serie A. As a result, Spalletti had to take charge in the autumn amid a long run of poor results. Overall, he has clearly stabilized the situation. In the Champions League, Juventus, despite dropping points quite often, still managed to reach the playoffs. However, this week they suffered a heavy setback in the cup, losing 0–3 to Atalanta. In Serie A, the clear objective now is third place, and the convincing 4–1 win over Parma in the previous round supports that ambition. Recent league performances suggest Juventus are becoming more reliable at home. At the same time, setbacks in knockout competitions show that consistency is still an issue.

Lazio are unlikely to save this season. The Eagles finished the 2024/2025 campaign with 65 points, losing sixth place and the final European qualification spot to Fiorentina on tiebreakers. Unhappy with that outcome, the club brought Sarri back to Rome, a coach who had previously led them to a runners-up finish. However, health issues for the coach and the sale of key assets by the board limited progress. As a result, wins came rarely and in small numbers. After 21 matches, the record was perfectly balanced with seven wins, seven draws, and seven losses. A goalless 0–0 draw with Lecce followed, before an entertaining 3–2 win over Genoa brought some relief. Still, the cup remains their last realistic hope, with another fixture coming after the trip to Turin. Recent league results indicate slight improvement, but the overall picture remains fragile. Away from home, Lazio continue to struggle to control matches against top-level opponents.
In nine of the last ten head-to-head meetings, the home side claimed victory, more often Juventus. Only in May did the teams draw 1–1 in Rome, although this season at the Stadio Olimpico Lazio won, seemingly restoring the tradition. The hosts will be eager to take revenge for the recent cup disappointment. The pick is Juventus to win with a handicap of -1 goal.
Prediction for the match: Juventus to win with -1.0 handicap.
