A classic battle for European qualification spots will unravel in the Italian capital city this weekend as Lazio host Juventus. Ahead of this game, Lazio are second in Serie A with the visitors in seventh and only four points off sixth place. Lazio continued their impressive league run with a 2-0 win over Monza last matchday making it six games without a loss. This sequence has seen them win five and draw one, as they built up a bit of cushion from the teams chasing second spot. It is their much-acclaimed defensive record that has helped their campaign as Lazio have conceded a league-low 19 goals so far. While their overall record has been impressive, Lazio will take note of their stuttering home form that has landed only four wins from their last nine Serie A home matches, including three draws and two losses.

Juventus would definitely want to target that, as they look to overcome the handicap of points deduction and finish in the European spots. While seventh could possibly give them a spot in Europe depending on cup results, but Juve are looking good to make a dash for top-six. A dodgy 1-1 draw where three red cards were flashed marked their last game against Inter Milan in Coppa Italia, halting a run of five straight wins in all competitions. When it comes to Serie A, the Old Lady have won five of their last six drawing the other, which increased their chances of finishing in the European qualification spots. Allegri’s side have won seven of their last eight matches in Serie A, although the only loss in that sequence came at this venue. It could be a result either way, going by their recent record as Juve haven’t seen a draw across their last 11 away league matches – winning seven and losing four.
