Lazio v Juventus Betting Tips [30 March 2024]

Two sides in really shaky form, Juventus and Lazio will be facing off when Serie A action returns after the international break. A recent slump has seen Juventus drop to third in the standings while hosts Lazio are ninth going into this game. After a run of four straight defeats, Lazio bounced back with a 3-2 win over Frosinone before heading to the international break. That left them on 43 points, 11 below the top four. At this rate, Lazio will need something special in the remaining matches to reach the Champions League places. The major worry for Igor Tudor going into this game will be in their defending. Lazio have managed just two clean sheets in their last 10 matches. In four of their last five matches, they conceded at least two goals, and failed to score in two of the five. The coach will also have to find a solution to their declining home form. Lazio have failed to win any of their last four home league matches. In this run, they lost three straight home matches.

Juventus have lost just once in their last nine matches against Lazio. When t5hey two met in the reverse fixture, Juventus strolled to a 3-1 win. Here they will go in search of a seventh win in 10 meetings with Lazio. The Old Lady will however not be going into this game in their best shape. One win in seven matches is a run that has badly dented whatever title hopes they had. Here they come trailing league leaders Inter Milan by 17 points. The best they can play for now is a top four finish. Thankfully, with 59 points, they have an eight-point buffer ahead of fifth placed Roma. The 0-0 draw with Genoa ahead of the international break marked their third straight winless outing, having lost once. That was also the first time in five matches that they failed to score. After failing to win in their last two matches, which were at home, the test will be sterner on the road. Juventus haven't won their last three away matches in the league. They lost to Inter Milan and Napoli either side of a draw with Verona.

These are two sides in poor form coming into this game and while either side wants a win, a draw would be fair in their current states. Juventus’ title charge blew cold after a poor run, as was Lazio’s Champions League ambition. Lazio aren’t in great shape at home and neither are the visitors on the road. As such, our prediction for Lazio v Juventus is for the game to end in a draw.
