LAZIO v INTER MILAN
Monday 29th October 2018 – Kickoff: 2030hrs
Football – Italy – Serie A Betting Tips
Another big clash awaits us on Monday night in the Italian top flight as 4th placed Lazio take on 3rd placed Inter Milan as the betting tips continue at the Stadio Olimpico with a lot at stake for both sides.
It’s not quite a six-pointer at this stage of the season, but nevertheless, this is a big game that neither side will want to lose as the winners (if there is one), will further consolidate their top four position in Serie A as the other’s expense.
Lazio recorded a very valuable and impressive win away at French club, Marseille during last week’s Champions League which made it three wins on the trot for the hosts following back-to-back Serie A wins over Fiorentina and Parma.
On the domestic front, Lazio have won six of their last seven in the Italian top flight and possess a useful looking home record of 3-0-1 7/3 while their main goal threat is likely to come from striker Immobile (6 goals from 9 games).
Inter Milan suffered a 2-0 defeat away at Barcelona but it was a tough ask for the Italian club to get anything from the Camp Nou even with the likes of Lionel Messi absent for the Spanish outfit.
However, it’s a return to domestic top flight action on Monday night for the visitors who will head into this important clash on the back of five league wins on the trot; victories over Sampdoria, Fiorentina, Cagliari, SPAL and bitter local rivals, AC Milan will give them plenty of confidence of getting a result in Roma tonight.
In addition, Inter have won their last three away matches on the trot with wins at Bologna, Sampdoria and SPAL amidst an overall away record of 3-0-1 6/2 which is very similar indeed to Lazio’s record on home soil. Forward, Icardi (4 goals) represents the visitors main goalscoring outlet on the back of Perisic’s influence in midfield.
Both teams will be keen to consolidate their position in the top four with neither wanting to give ground to the other – my betting tips feel this could well end up a stalemate.
Pick: Draw @ 3.50 bet365 (odds taken at 05:00GMT, 29 Oct 2018)
