Juventus are unbeaten in Serie A this season but begin the weekend four points behind league leaders AC Milan. They have a tough game this weekend as they travel to tenth placed Lazio. Juventus have only lost one of their last ten league and cup games, a home Champions League defeat by Barcelona. They are looking for their third win in a week after beating Spezia last weekend and then Ferencvaros in the Champions League. Both games were played away from home and Juventus won them both 4-1. Juventus may be unbeaten this season in Serie A but have had to battle hard to maintain that record. They had to come from behind at both Roma and Crotone to grab draws. Juventus have scored in 19 of their last 20 away league games. However, they have conceded in all but two of those games. All of which explains why six of their last eight away games have had over 2.5 goals scored in them.

Lazio are down in tenth in the table but only two points behind their opponents. They come into this game having won both of their last two league matches. Last weekend was a real thriller as they won 4-3 at Torino. That was an unlikely win after being 3-2 going into the 90th minute. Midweek saw them go to Zenit St Petersburg in the Champions League and come home with a 1-1 draw. Home form in Serie A has seen just one loss in the last five played. They'll be looking to repeat last year's home league win over Juventus. That ended a run of five straight home league losses to them. For a long time Lazio were title contenders last season but ended up fourth after earning just 13 points from their last ten games. A bet on over 2.5 goals being scored looks a good one to make in this game.
