Lazio Review – Can Lazio continue their winning form after a composed win last week?

Lazio last year had a 4th placed finish after being in the mix of 2nd all through the season and at one stage they were thought of challenging Juventus for the Scudetto. Behind the likes of Correa and Malinkovic-Savic, Lazio have created a title-challenging squad, but this season they will be looking for that strong consistency in order to get over that final hurdle.

Our betting prediction:
Atalanta to Win
10/3

Last time out, Lazio produced a controlled and composed win over Cagliari. The 2-0 scoreline did not give the full picture of how dominant Lazio was. With 16 shots on goal during the match and over 100 more passes than the Cagliari side with 514.

Lazio hardly looked to be in any real trouble during the course of the game. Goals have become a synonymous fixture with the focal point, talisman and captain of the side: Ciro Immobile. Starting off this campaign in quick fashion with a goal in the second half of the match.

Lazio will be heavily dependant again on his goals to achieve any sort of success this season. Last season in the league he was the top scorer with 36 goals in 37 matches. Immobile firmly put himself in the conversation of the world’s top strikers last season and will be the dangerman that Atalanta will be desperate to stop on Wednesday evening.

However, Lazio isn’t a one-man team and will also be able to provide a real threat to the Atalanta side through the likes of Joaquin Correa and Luis Alberto are more than capable of posing a threat and producing moments of magic.

 

Atalanta Review – Can last seasons’ most exciting team provide a real challenge for the title?

Gian Gasperini has had the world purring over his Atalanta side. The team is filled with great attacking football, that not only provides entertaining matches but plenty of opportunities for the side to score and as a result, it creates a plethora of goals too.

The style of football that Atalanta plays produced 17 more goals than their nearest competition (Inter Milan) last season with a total tally of 98 goals. They continued their goal-scoring style of play with another 4 goals against Torino in their season opener on Saturday.

The danger for Lazio in faring against this Atalanta side is the potency of danger across the whole squad. On Saturday the scoreline showed 4 separate goal scorers meaning theirs not one person to focus on but the system deployed by Gasperini means that anyone can be a danger.

The likes of Luis Muriel and Duvan Zapata are the ones that will be creating the backline of Lazio’s serious problems, but they don’t have a main talisman that allows an opportunity for Lazio to mark intensely.

Lazio v Atalanta Betting Advice

Inter will enter this match having won both of their Serie A watches against Benevento: a 2-1 victory in October 2017 away from home and in February 2018 they produced a strong 2-0 win at the San Siro.
