The closing of the 19th round of the Italian Championship, this Tuesday, will be in high style. In Rome, Lazio receives Milan at the Olympic Stadium, at 4:45 pm (Brasília time). Only four points separate the two teams on the leaderboard. The Rossoneros are in 2nd, with 38, while the team from the capital are in 6th, with 34. Napoli lead with 50.
In the fight for a place in the next edition of the Champions League, Lazio can reach the same 37 points as rival Roma, which closes the G4 of the Italian, in case of victory. However, in 2023, irregularity has taken over. In four games, there were two wins, one draw and one defeat. For the match at Olímpico, the team coached by Maurizio Sarri will not have Fuentes and Ciro Immobile, the team’s highlight.
Already the Italian red-black comes under pressure after the victory of leader Napoli against Salernitana, which momentarily increased the difference in leadership to 12 points. In addition, it comes from a negative streak and is four games without a win. Among the recent results are defeats to Torino in the Coppa Italia and to Inter Milan in the Supercup. What’s more, Milan’s medical department is full: Maignan, Ibrahimovic, Florenzi, Krunic and Toure are confirmed absences.
Prognoses:
More than 3.5 goals
Maurizio Sarri’s team is characterized by a more offensive style, a team that values possession of the ball. In which your goalkeeper is extremely important when leaving the game.
The Rossoneri, coached by Stefano Pioli, present us with many tactical variations, adapting to the opponent and moment of the game. A game with great chances for both parties.
Both To Score – Yes
The Blue Eagles have the 5th best attack in the competition, with 31 goals scored in 18 games, practically the team scores a goal per game. On the other hand, the visitors have the 2nd best attack, having scored 35 times. Thus, both teams play offensively, which is the safest bet.
