Betting on underdogs in football matches
Lazio faces Juventus at the Stadio Olimpico in a fixture from the 36th round of the Serie A. This is an important game for the Top 4 race in Italy. Let’s dive into it in our Betting on underdogs in football matches.
These two teams are having the same amount of points at the moment – 63. Juventus are currently 4th, but Lazio can overtake them if they win on Saturday. Surely the Eagles will be adamant to show the best they can do and move closer to a Champions League return. But of course – Juve want the same thing.
Last weekend Lazio did their job and celebrated an important 1-0 win during the visit to Empoli. Boulaye Dia opened the score in the first minute of the match. Until the end Marco Baroni’s team controlled the game and didn’t allow Empoli to hurt them.
Baroni’s problems come from the red card of Elseid Hysaj. The Albanian right back got sent off in the middle of the second half. It means he won’t be able to play against Juventus at the Olimpico.
Juventus have only one goal at mind – securing their place in Top 4. The Old Lady don’t have a room for mistake here, though – it’s not just Lazio chasing them, but also teams like Roma and Bologna.
Last weekend Juventus had a tough visit to Bologna where they only got a point after a 1-1 draw at the Stadio Renato Dall’Ara. Khephren Thuram opened the score for Juve, but the Rossoblu found a way to equalise after the halftime break.
That’s the Betting on underdogs in football matches guide for the Serie A crucial derby between Lazio and Juventus in the capital. One of these two teams could make a huge step towards a Top 4 finish. Let’s see how it will go.
