Team News


Lazio: Lazio are only missing Lucas Leiva for this match, otherwise this is a healthy squad and we can expect a full strength lineup to be fielded.


AC Milan: Milan are of course without star striker Gonzalo Higuain as he is suspended after being sent off against Juventus which is a big blow. Furthermore, they’re without a couple of defenders in Musacchio and Romagnoli who are both out with injuries.


Betting Tips and Predictions


We’ve got two teams who are evenly matched here but we’ve gotta back Lazio here for a couple of key reasons. Firstly, Lazio are at home and they’ve got a decent record here against Milan. Secondly, Milan are missing their star striker and that’s a huge blow and it’s where this game will get decided. While Lazio have a clinical Immobile, Milan don’t have anyone that can match that up front themselves with Higuain out. Plus Lazio have to eventually win one of those big games and this will be that game. Our prediction is a 2-1 win for Lazio. Expect goals (2.5 over priced at 1.81) but also expect Lazio to grab this win. Lazio to win are priced at 1.81.
