Verona vs Lazio Prediction & Match Preview

Thomas Henry bagged the 97th-minute equalizer for Verona to prevent their defeat against Udinese last Sunday at Bluenergy Arena.

It was the second successive high-scoring draw for Verona who scored abs conceded five goals apiece in the last two Serie A rounds, facing Lecce and Udinese in the process.

Verona are now winless in 13 successive games in all competitions and they hold the 18th place in the league standings with just 12 goal scored in 14 matches.

Marco Baroni’s men will try and terminate a horrendous streak on Saturday afternoon when they play host to Lazio in Gameweek No 15 at Stadio Marc’Antonio Bentegodi.

Lazio were in action in mid-week as they dispatched Genoa 1-0 at home to advance to the next round of Coppa Italia.

It was the third clean-sheet win on the spin at home for I Biancocelesti, who dispatched Cagliari 1-0 last Saturday at Stadio Olimpico.

The problems for Lazio begin on travels, though, as Maurizio Sarri’s troops lost five of seven away fixtures in this term of Serie A.

Latest Meetings

The outfits have a win each in the previous four head to head encounters.

Lazio even carry a negative overall record at Stadio Marc’Antonio Bentegodi where they won just 4 of the previous 12 games against Verona.

Both teams were on target in three of the previous four head to head encounters.

The Verdict

Lazio have been playing tight, defensive-minded football of late. Seven of the last eight matches they played in all competitions thus ended with fewer than three goals scored.

Knowing about Verona’s attacking limits (despite their increase in form in the last two rounds), we will go for the Under 2.5 goals FT as the main betting option at the 1.66 odds. Alternatively, the value is with Verona not to lose at the 1.80 odds.
