Lazio vs Salernitana Prediction & Match Preview

• Lazio can ill afford another slip-up after successive losses to Juventus and Roma.
• Salernitana are winless in 14 straight games across competitions.
• The visitors boast the worst defensive record in the Serie A.

Lazio will have a nice chance to return to winning ways after an unpleasant defeat to Roma in the last weekend’s Derby della Capitale. The Biancocelesti were toothless in the final third against fierce city rivals six days ago. The fact they registered just a single shot on target in the 90 minutes of action at Stadio Olimpico speaks volumes.

The loss to Roma halted Lazio’s push for the European positions. They are 8th in the league table at the moment, sitting four points behind Atalanta in 6th place. Lazio will be massive favourites in Matchday No 32, though. They host rock-bottomed Salernitana in the first game of the round on Friday evening at Stadio Olimpico.

The visitors have all but suffered elimination to the second tier of Italian football. They firmly hold the very foot of the league table. The team from Salerno are twelve points shy of the safe zone with just seven games left to play.

• Salernitana shocked Lazio 2-1 in the reverse game in November last year at Stadio Arechi.
• Overall, Lazio have four wins and three losses in the previous seven clashes with Salernitana.
• All but one of the previous six head-to-head matches saw three or more goals scored.

Lazio vs Salernitana Prediction

The gulf in quality between Salernitana and the rest of the division is enormous, as shown in the league standings. Stefano Colantuono’s men got lucky to avoid a home defeat to fellow strugglers Sassuolo last Friday. Giulio Maggiore found the stoppage-time equalizer in a 2-2 stalemate. Salernitana were by far the inferior side on the pitch, scoring their two goals from the two lone shots on target on the occasion. The visitors are winless in 14 straight games in all competitions. They have lost three and drawn one of the last four matches along the way.

Lazio can still catch up with the likes of Atalanta in the battle for the UEFA Europa League place. We expect the hosts to bounce back in style and beat the worst team in the league by at least two goals difference on Friday. You can back Lazio to win in -1.5 Asian Handicap at the 1.95 odds.

Over 2.5 goals bet also looks as a great option at the 1.72 odds. Salernitana own the worst defensive record in the whole league. They have conceded 64 goals in 31 Serie A matches so far in the season. Three of their last four league games ended with at least three goals scored. Finally, we’ve witnessed the same scenario in five of the last six head-to-head outings between these counterparts.
