Empoli vs Lazio Prediction & Match Preview

Lazio failed to do much to threaten sovereign Serie A leaders Inter Milan in the last weekend’s game at Stadio Olimpico.

I Biancocelecti lost 0-2 on the occasion, making it three straight matches without a win across competitions.

Maurizio Sarri’s troops also fell into the bottom half of the league table as a consequence and they will be looking to bounce back on Friday evening with the trip to Stadio Carlo Castellani.

Lazio managed just two wins in eight away fixtures in this term of the Serie A and it is very hard to even consider them as the favorites on the road, regardless of the opposition.

That said, I Biancocelesti will carry this tag on Friday as Empoli have not been pulling up any trees since the beginning of the season.

The hosts have won just three games in this term and they’ll go into this winless in four straight affairs, including the last week’s 0-1 defeat to Torino on the road.

Latest Meetings

Lazio are unbeaten in the last ten clashes with Empoli. They’ve won four and drawn two of the last six along the way.

I Biancocelesti picked up a 2-0 victory in the previous away game against Empoli in June this year.

We’ve seen at least four goals scored in three of the last four head to head outings between these teams.

The Verdict

Only one of Empoli’s previous five league matches provided three or more goals, while the same scenario occurred just once in Lazio’s previous eleven games across competitions.

The Under 2.5 goals FT is the standout betting pick here at the 1.70 odds while you can alternatively back out-of-form Lazio to score Under 1.5 Team Goals at the 1.66 odds.
