Atalanta vs Lazio Prediction & Betting Tips - Serie A

Prediction published on 15/12/2018, 14:35  by Daniel Ngulu in Serie A Prediction

Five wins in the last seven Serie A matches have seen livened up Atalanta and they can go to this game in high confidence looking to shake up a Lazio side coming from the Europa League, where they lost at home to German side Eintracht Frankfurt. Lazio have managed just one win in their last six matches in the league, but they have also lost just one. They have drawn each of their last four league matches ahead of this clash and will be hoping to get back to winning ways. A positive stat that Lazio will be looking at in this game is that they have scored in each of their last five matches in the league as well as in 12 of their last 13 matches in Serie A. Atalanta too have an impressive goal scoring record; they have scored in each of the last seven Serie A matches, netting two or more in six of the seven. Actually each of the last seven Serie A game for Atalanta have produced over 2.5 goals. Atalanta have no clean sheet in the last nine Serie A matches, same to Lazio in the last six, which paints a picture of the two sides’ defences and we expect to see goals here. Atalanta have two home clean sheets in the last five league matches, while Lazio have one in the last five away league matches. This match has been a close one in the recent years; the last two meetings have ended in draws (1 – 1 and 3 – 3) while it is normally a high scoring affair, with four of the last six meetings having yielded over 2.5 goals and only one game in the six has seen a team keep a clean sheet. In 39 meetings between the two, Lazio have managed 20 wins while Atalanta have nine.
