Meanwhile, Lazio will also be bolstered by the return of veteran winger Pedro after a lengthy two-month absence due to a calf injury.

Lazio, on the other hand, have also won the last three matches, beating Sampdoria, Spezia and Genoa.

Juventus vs Lazio prediction and football betting tips for Serie A 2021-22

Lazio, with 72 goals, are Serie A’s second-highest goal scorers this term. At the same time, however, their defence has been extremely vulnerable, having conceded 53 goals as compared to Juventus�?33. 

While there is a good chance for Lazio to score on Tuesday, Juventus will be no pushovers. And given the form their forwards are in, especially Dusan Vlahovic, Juventus are understandably the odds on favourites.

Lazio vs AC Milan recent form

Lazio are coming off a 1-1 draw against Torino, with the result ending a short-lived two-game winning run since a 0-3 derby loss to AS Roma. Maurizio Sarri’s men, seventh on the points table, have suffered just two defeats in their last 12 Serie A matches and will prioritise gaining a point from this fixture.

AC Milan, on the other hand, saw their 13-game unbeaten run across all competitions come to an end with a derby loss to rivals Inter in the Coppa Italia semi-finals. The Rossoneri, however, haven’t lost a league tie since the 1-2 loss to Spezia in January and are hoping to keep hold of their two-point lead at the summit of the points table.

AC Milan hold the better head-to-head record against Lazio, winning 82 matches in 185 clashes across all competitions. Lazio, in comparison, have bagged 39 wins.

Lazio vs AC Milan prediction and tips for Serie A 2021-22

Despite the injury struggles at hand, AC Milan are the favourites to win this fixture. The current Serie A leaders will look up to the seasoned Olivier Giroud to find the net for a team chasing a first league title since 2010-11.

However, Lazio will be no pushovers considering they have a formidable home record to boast - unbeaten in 27 of their last 29 home Serie A matches.

Serie A leaders Napoli (NAP) host Lazio (LAZ) in Matchday 14 at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona in the early hours of Monday, November 29.

Under manager Luciano Spalletti, Napoli have made an incredible start to their new Serie A campaign, registering 10 wins, two draws and just one defeat in 13 matches so far. With 32 points on board, Gli Azzurri are currently leading the Serie A 2021-22 standings.

Lazio, on the other hand, have been inconsistent in the ongoing season of Serie A under new manager Maurizio Sarri. The White and Sky Blues have secured just six victories in 13 matches besides being involved in three draws and four losses. They are currently placed seventh in the standings with 21 points from 13 matches.

NAP vs LAZ Dream11 Prediction

Napoli have a superior head-to-head record against Lazio across all competitions, winning 60 matches played between these two sides. On the other hand, Lazio have managed 49 victories while 50 matches have ended in draws. The previous time these two teams met, Napoli defeated Lazio 5-2 in the last season of Serie A in April.

Going by recent form and home advantage, Napoli will start as favourites in their first meeting against Lazio in the Serie 2021-22 season.

NAP vs LAZ Dream11 team tips for Serie A 2021-22

Top tip: Best forward

Lazio striker Ciro Immobile has been in staggering form for his side in the ongoing season. The Italian national football team forward has netted 13 goals in 16 matches across competitions including 10 goals in Serie A. He is currently the top-scorer in the Italian top flight and is likely to be a massive goal threat for Napoli.

Top tip: Best midfielder

Spanish midfielder Fabian Ruiz has been one of the standout players for Serie A league leaders Napoli. The 25-year-old has already accumulated 497 fantasy points and is a must-have in your fantasy team. In 16 appearances this season, Ruiz has bagged three goals and will look to control the midfield against Lazio on Monday.

Top tip: Best defender and goalkeeper

Meanwhile, Napoli left-back Mario Rui will be the defender to watch out for. The defender has been in sensational for Napoli, amassing 475 fantasy points in 13 matches. The Gli Azzurri have conceded just seven goals in the ongoing season, eight less than second-placed AC Milan and Rui has played a big part in it.

On other hand, Napoli’s David Ospina pips Pepe Reina for the goalkeeper spot due to his great form this season that’s seen him concede just seven goals in 13 matches.

NAP vs LAZ probable playing XI

NAP probable XI (4-2-3-1): David Ospina; Giovanni Di Lorenzo, Amir Rrahmani, Kalidou Koulibaly, Mario Rui; Fabian Ruiz, Diego Demme; Hirving Lozano, Piotr Zielinski, Eljif Elmas; Andrea Petagna

LAZ probable XI (4-3-3): Pepe Reina; Manuel Lazzari, Luiz Felipe, Francesco Acerbi, Elseid Hysaj; Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, Danilo Cataldi, Luis Alberto; Felipe Anderson, Ciro Immobile, Pedro

Lazio (LAZ) will host Juventus (JUV) in Matchweek 13 of the Serie A 2021-22 season at the Stadio Olimpico on Saturday, November 17. The game will kick off at 10:30 PM IST.

LAZ vs JUV Dream11 Prediction

Lazio sit fifth on the points table with 21 points from 12 matches, and are likely to maintain their position. Maurizio Sarri’s men head into the fixture fresh from a 3-0 success at newcomers Salernitana, and are well-placed to extend their unbeaten league form at home against Juventus. 

Juventus have made an indifferent start to their Serie A 2021-22 campaign and currently find themselves eighth in the standings with 18 points. Massimiliano Allegri’s Bianconeri are still reeling from Cristiano Ronaldo’s summer departure from the club on the attacking front. They haven’t been at their best at the back either and arrive at the Stadio Olimpico with just one clean sheet on the road in the league.

LAZ vs JUV Dream11 team tips for Serie A 2021-22

Top tip: Best forward

Serie A top-scorer Ciro Immobile picked up a calf injury last week and thus, Pedro is expected to lead the line for Lazio against Juventus. The veteran Spaniard has registered four goals and two assists for Lazio in 12 games, and will possibly play as a false nine alongside Raul Moro and Felipe Anderson out wide on the flanks.

Top tip: Best midfielder

Sergej Milinković-Savić is expected to dictate terms from the midfield engine room in the Lazio vs Juventus clash. The Serbian midfielder has accounted for three goals and four assists this season, marginally better than Juventus�?Manuel Locatelli (two goals and two assists). Fantasy players can put their money on Milinković-Savić to put on a match-winning display this weekend.

Top tip: Best defender and goalkeeper

Both Lazio and Juventus have conceded 10-plus goals in the Serie A this term, meaning there is no defender that’s an outright favourite for this position. However, it is worth noting that Matthijs de Ligt could be an asset, given his attribute as a goal-scoring defender besides his defensive stability at the back.

When it comes to goalkeepers, Wojciech Szczesny is the first-choice pick. The Juventus custodian may have kept just two clean sheets in the league this term but the former Arsenal star has managed 24 saves in the competition, giving him the edge over Lazio’s Pepe Reina.

LAZ vs JUV probable playing XI

LAZ playing XI (probable): Pepe Reina (goalkeeper), Stefan Radu, Luiz Felipe, Francesco Acerbi (captain), Elseid Hysaj, Lucas Leiva, Luis Alberto, Sergej Milinković-Savić, Raul Moro, Pedro, Felipe Anderson

JUV playing XI (probable): Wojciech Szczesny (goalkeeper), Juan Cuadrado, Leonardo Bonucci (captain), Matthijs de Ligt, Alex Sandro, Arthur, Manuel Locatelli, Weston McKennie, Adrien Rabiot, Alvaro Morata, Federico Chiesa

Atalanta (ATN) will take on Lazio (LAZ) in an enthralling Serie A 2021-22 encounter at the Atleti Azzurri d'Italia in Bergamo on Saturday, October 30. The game will kick off at 6:30 PM IST.

Under the tutelage of Gian Piero Gasperini, Atalanta have secured five wins, three draws and suffered two defeats in 10 Serie A matches this season. With 18 points from 10 games, Atalanta are placed fifth in the standings and one point behind fourth-placed AS Roma.

Maurizio Sarri’s Lazio have also been inconsistent with their form, managing just five victories in 10 league matches so far. With just one point behind Atalanta in the sixth position, the Biancocelesti are currently fighting for a spot in Serie A’s top four.

ATN vs LAZ Dream11 Prediction

Lazio hold a superior head-to-head record against Atalanta in Serie A, winning 18 of the 38 matches that they have played so far. Atalanta have managed 11 victories while nine matches have ended in a draw. The previous meeting between these two sides took place in January as Lazio claimed a 3-1 win. However, going by recent form and home advantage, Atalanta will have a slight edge over Lazio on Saturday. 

ATN vs LAZ Dream11 team tips for Serie A 2021-22

Top tip: Best forward

Ciro Immobile has been in sensational form for Lazio in the ongoing Serie A season. The 31-year-old striker has already netted eight goals in nine matches in the league and has been the standout player for the Rome-based club. Immobile is tipped to add to his goal-scoring tally against Atalanta at the Atleti Azzurri d'Italia.

Top tip: Best midfielder

Among the quality midfielders on display, one must pick Lazio’s Sergej Milinković-Savić in your fantasy team. The 26-year-old Serbian international has been one of the best midfielders in the top tier of the Italian league, scoring eight goals and providing 10 assists in 32 Serie A matches last season. Milinković-Savić has scored three goals as well as provided four assists and will once again be instrumental for Lazio against a strong Atalanta outfit.

Top tip: Best defender and goalkeeper

José Luis Palomino has been one of the standout players for Atalanta in Serie A 2021-22. Under manager Gian Piero Gasperini, Palomino has established himself in the starting XI and recovered the most balls (77) in the first seven league matches.

For the goalkeeper spot, Atalanta custodian Juan Musso will be the preferred choice over veteran Pepe Reina of Lazio. Musso has impressed everyone since his move from Udinese this summer. The 27-year-old recently made some decisive saves against Manchester United in a UEFA Champions League tie to keep his team in the game.

ATN vs LAZ probable playing XI

ATN probable XI (3-4-2-1): Juan Musso (goalkeeper); Marten de Roon, José Luis Palomino, Matteo Lovato; Joakim Maehle (captain), Teun Koopmeiners, Remo Freuler, Davide Zappacosta; Ruslan Malinovskyi, Mario Pasalic; Duván Zapata.

LAZ probable XI (4-3-3): Pepe Reina (goalkeeper); Manuel Lazzari, Luiz Felipe, Francesco Acerbi, Adam Marusic; Luis Alberto, Danilo Cataldi, Sergej Milinković-Savić; Felipe Anderson, Ciro Immobile (captain), Pedro

Lazio (LAZ) host third-placed Inter Milan (INT) in Gameweek 8 of the Serie A 2021/22 season at the Stadio Olimpico on Saturday, October 16. The game will kick off at 9:30 PM IST.

LAZ vs INT Dream11 Prediction

Inter Milan, unbeaten in the Serie A 2021/22 season and four points adrift of leaders Napoli, start as favourites to win against Lazio. The Nerazzurri lead the head-to-head record against Lazio (65 wins, 37 defeats and 54 draws in 165 meetings).

LAZ, on the flip side, have won just one of their last five Serie A home games against Inter and need to carve out a positive result to end the defending champion's unbeaten start to the season.

LAZ vs INT Dream11 tips for Serie A 2021/22

Top tip: Best forward

It is certainly a no-brainer that fantasy players should draft in Edin Dzeko as their first-choice forward for LAZ vs INT. Since switching over from AS Roma, the Bosnian star has scored six goals and two assists in seven league games already this term and will look to consolidate the tally against Lazio.

Top tip: Best midfielder

Lazio's Felipe Anderson starts as the top midfielder in this contest. The Brazilian has started the season confidently with two goals and two assists, and must create some goal-scoring opportunities against an Inter defence that has leaked just eight goals so far.

Top tip: Best defender and goalkeeper

Milan Skriniar, with 100 fantasy points, will be deployed to keep the likes of Lazio’s Ciro Immobile and Pedro in check. The Slovakian centre-back has contributed two goals this term and could be an asset for fantasy players with regards to a goalscoring defender

When it comes to goalkeepers, Samir Handanovic is the first-choice pick. The Inter Milan captain has kept one clean sheet in the league this term, but considering his points tally of 82 points, fantasy players can place their trust in the 37-year-old to deny the Lazio attackers on Saturday.

LAZ vs INT probable playing XI

LAZ playing XI (probable): Jose Manuel Reina, Adam Marusic, Luiz Felipe, Patric, Elseid Hysaj, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, Jean-Daniel Akpa Akpro, Luis Alberto, Felipe Anderson, Ciro Immobile (captain), Pedro

INT playing XI (probable): Samir Handanovic (goalkeeper and captain), Milan Skriniar, Stefan de Vrij, Alessandro Bastoni, Denzel Dumfries, Nicolo Barella, Marcelo Brozovic, Hakan Calhanoglu, Matteo Darmian, Edin Dzeko, Lautaro Martinez

Lazio will lock horns with AS Roma in the first Rome derby of the Serie A 2021-22 season at the Stadio Olimpico on Sunday, September 26. The Derby della Capitale will kick off at 9:30 PM IST.

Under star manager Jose Mourinho, Roma have showcased their title credentials, winning four of the five matches this season. With 12 points from five games, Roma are currently fourth in the points table and are three points behind league leaders Napoli.

On the other hand, Lazio are winless in their last three games and have struggled for form since their 6-1 thrashing of Spezia. Maurizio Sarri’s side are currently placed seventh in the standings with eight points from five matches.

LAZ vs ROM Dream11 Prediction

Roma are ahead on the overall head-to-head record against Lazio having won 67 times. Meanwhile, Lazio have secured 47 victories and there have been 62 draws. Going by current form, Mourinho’s Roma are expected to bag maximum points against a struggling Lazio outfit.

LAZ vs ROM Dream11 team tips for Serie A 2021-22

Top tip: Best forward

While Lazio have struggled as a team in the ongoing edition of Serie A, their star forward Ciro Immobile has continued his dominance in the Italian league. The 31-year-old is currently the leading goal-scorer in Serie A 2021-22 with six goals and is likely to trouble the Roma defence in the derby on Sunday.

Top tip: Best midfielder

Jordan Veretout has been one of the standout performers for Mourinho’s AS Roma this season. Veretout became the first French midfielder to score at least 10 Serie A goals in a season since legend Michel Platini for Juventus in 1985�?6. The former Aston Villa midfielder has continued his incredible form and has already netted three goals this season. He will be the midfielder to watch out for in the upcoming derby.

Top tip: Best defender and goalkeeper

Lazio’s Francesco Acerbi was one of the best defenders in Serie A 2020-21, making 2.5 interceptions per match. Known as a hard tackler, Acerbi needs to be at his very best to stop an in-form AS Roma side. 

For the goalkeeper spot, one must pick Rui Patricio of Roma over Lazio’s Pepe Reina. Since making his move from Wolverhampton Wanderers this summer, Patricio has already made some decisive saves to help his side secure valuable points in the five matches that he has played in the league so far. 

LAZ vs ROM probable playing XI

LAZ probable XI (4-3-3): Pepe Reina; Manuel Lazzari, Luis Felipe, Francesco Acerbi, Elseid Hysaj; Luis Alberto, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, Danilo Cataldi; Pedro, Felipe Anderson, Ciro Immobile

ROM probable XI (4-2-3-1): Rui Patricio; Rick Karsdorp, Gianluca Mancini, Roger Ibanez, Ricardo Califiori; Bryan Cristante, Jordan Veretout; Nicolo Zaniolo, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Carles Perez; Tammy Abraham

AC Milan (MIL) host in-form table-toppers Lazio (LAZ) as the 2021/22 Serie A season resumes this weekend. The 157th Serie A meeting between the teams will kick off at 9.30 PM IST at the San Siro on Sunday, September 12.

Lazio, under new coach Maurizio Sarri, have made a bright start to the 2021 season with consecutive wins and nine goals in the bank. AC Milan, meanwhile, sit fourth on the points table but are confident of putting up a bold fight against the Biancocelesti. 

MIL vs LAZ Dream11 Prediction

Although AC Milan have the bigger say in the head-to-head record, Lazio's emphatic start to the season gives them the outright edge in the MIL vs LAZ contest in Serie A 2021. But judging by the wealth of quality players on either side, it is safe to say that a stalemate is the likeliest outcome.

MIL vs LAZ Dream11 tips for Serie A

Top tip: Best forward

With four goals from the first two games, Ciro Immobile starts as the favourite attacker fantasy football players should include in their teams. The Italian forward has registered seven goals and four assists in 13 meetings with the Rossoneri, and will be eager to consolidate his record with yet another fine performance.

Top tip: Best midfielder

Spanish midfielder Luis Alberto has been the chief orchestrator of Lazio's blistering start to the Serie A 2021 campaign, with one goal and three assists. The 28-year-old, a central midfielder, is rated as the best midfielder of the lot in the fantasy football selection for this tie meaning owners should simply not ignore him.

Top tip: Best defender and goalkeeper

Both AC Milan and Lazio will have a tough job at hand in the defence, but Francesco Acerbi will hope to have the last laugh in the MIL vs LAZ encounter. The Italian centre-back can also pitch in during attacking play and thus, he could pose a definite threat to AC Milan. 

When it comes to goalkeepers, Pepe Reina is the first-choice pick. The former Spain custodian may not have kept a clean sheet so far but in terms of experience, Reina is likely to put up a better performance between the sticks than Milan's new goalkeeper Mike Maignan.

MIL vs LAZ probable playing XI

MIL probable XI (4-2-3-1): Mike Maignan; Theo Hernandez, Fikayo Tomori, Simon Kjaer, Davide Calabria; Sandro Tonali, Franck Kessie; Brahim Diaz, Rafael Leao, Alexis Saelemaekers; Zlatan Ibrahimovic

LAZ probable XI (4-3-3): Pepe Reina; Elseid Hysaj, Francesco Acerbi, Luiz Felipe, Adam Marusic; Lucas Leiva, Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, Luis Alberto; Felipe Anderson, Pedro, Ciro Immobile

Defending UEFA Champions League champions Bayern Munich will hope to seal a place in the quarter-finals on Thursday, March 18, when they take on Serie A side Lazio in the UCL round of 16 second leg at the Allianz Arena.

The star-studded Bundesliga giants had an easy outing at the Stadio Olimpico in the first leg when they defeated Lazio 4-1, courtesy of goals from Robert Lewandowski, Jamal Musiala, Leroy Sane and Francesco Acerbi.

Though Joaquin Correa had pulled one back for Lazio, the Italian side will find it tough to overcome a three-goal deficit at Bayern Munich’s fortress. Watch Bayern Munich vs Lazio live!

Bayern Munich team news

Despite their goalscoring form, Bayern Munich manager Hansi Flick comes into this fixture with injury concerns as midfielder Corentin Tolisso, winger Douglas Costa and centre-back Tanguy Nianzou will all be absent from the second leg.

To further complicate things, veteran defender David Alaba missed Munich’s weekend win over Werder Bremen and could miss the UCL fixture as well.

Lazio team news

Simone Inzaghi, on the other hand, has a better-shaped side for the UEFA Champions League fixture. Aiming to turn around a three-goal deficit at the Allianz Arena, Lazio are only likely to miss centre-back Luiz Felipe and right-back Manuel Lazzari.

After an exhilarating Matchday 1, the UEFA Champions League returns to action in midweek. Last week’s action saw several star players stand up and being counted for their teams and Matchday 2 is likely to be no different. With that in mind, we look at a few names who can shine in the upcoming matches and help you score big fantasy points.

Player: Kingsley Coman

Team: Bayern Munich

Match: Lokomotiv Moscow vs Bayern Munich

Scorer of the goal that won Bayern Munich the UEFA Champions League final last season, Kingsley Coman has started the ongoing campaign in a rich vein of form. The pacey French winger has stepped up in the absence of Bayern’s sidelined wide man Leroy Sane and Serge Gnabry and will be keen to hold on to his spot in the first team with more solid performances. He scored twice as well as assisted once in the Bavarians�?win in their opening Champions League fixture against Atletico Madrid last week and will pose a threat going forward in Russia in midweek.   

Player: Romelu Lukaku

Team: Inter Milan

Match: Shakhtar Donetsk vs Inter Milan

The Belgian forward bagged a brace in Inter Milan’s first Champions League outing of the campaign and will be one of their main threats against Shakhtar Donetsk. A pacey and powerful forward who is the focal point of Inter’s attack, Romelu Lukaku has been in splendid form since his move to Italy last year. He scored 34 goals and provided six assists for I Nerazzurri last campaign and has seven goals in six games at the start of this season. One of the first names on the team sheet, Antonio Conte and Inter fans will be expecting him to be on target against Shakhtar.    

Player: Kylian Mbappe

Team: Paris Saint-Germain

Match: Istanbul Basaksehir vs Paris Saint-Germain

The French World Cup winner has enjoyed a good start to the season domestically but had a quiet opening Champions League match against Manchester United. He’s scored six times as well as provided four assists in five Ligue 1 games and will be keen to open his account in Europe. Although he had his chances on Matchday 1, a combination of good saves and robust defending kept him at bay. However, it’s safe to say that he will fancy his chances of getting on the scoresheet in Turkey and will go into the contest having netted a brace over the weekend.

Player: Ciro Immobile

Team: Lazio

Match: Club Brugge vs Lazio

Ciro Immobile was on target during Lazio’s win over Borussia Dortmund on Matchday 1 and will be the Italian outfit’s biggest threat against Club Brugge. Last season’s European Golden Shoe winner with 39 goals, Immobile scored for Lazio in their win over the weekend as well and must be marked closely if the Belgian club are to keep him quiet. He’s scored three times this season and will be eager to add to his tally, having enjoyed his last outing in the competition by both scoring and setting up a goal.

Player: Bruno Fernandes

Team: Manchester United

Match: Manchester United vs RB Leipzig

Bruno Fernandes has become Manchester United’s talisman since his move to Old Trafford in January, with most of the team’s attacking play going through the Portuguese playmaker. Only Kevin De Bruyne has more goal involvements among midfielders than Fernandes since the Portuguese international’s move to England and he will be keen to add to those numbers against RB Leipzig. He’s scored four times �?including once from the spot in United’s Champions League opener �?besides also providing three assists and will most likely be involved in the thick of the action against Leipzig.
