Juventus are in good shape. The team’s defensive line is as competent as ever and does not allow their opponents to create chances. Juventus conceded their first goal in Serie A only in the seventh round.
Lazio under the new head coach has started to play attacking soccer with a great emphasis on the flanks. Both central defenders are actively involved in the attack, leaving behind only a pair of midfielders Rovella-Gendusi. Surprisingly, but such an unbalanced game so far brings results – fourth place in Serie A with only three points behind the leading Napoli and one hundred percent victories in the Europa League.
Lazio have picked up a brilliant form, but for Juventus they are a very convenient opponent. Marco Baroni’s team can’t close in defense like Cagliari, Napoli or Roma. Even with serious squad problems, Juventus should win this match.
