Serie A 2022-23: Lazio vs Juventus: Match prediction, head-to-head & live telecast
Both teams are in good form heading into the clash.
Lazio has moved up to a second position in the Italian Serie A standings thanks to their outstanding recent performance. Lazio currently have nearly enough points to guarantee their spot in the Champions League for the upcoming season.
Roma, Inter, Atalanta, and Juventus, with whom they will play in this round and who are four to five points ahead of Milan appear to be quite secure. It was crucial to winning the previous round's away matchup against Monza.
Nobody would have predicted that Juventus would bounce back from the hefty punishment imposed by the federation and the loss of 15 points so swiftly and effortlessly. They've had strong performances since then and are currently in seventh place, only one spot away from qualifying for European competition.
Juventus are only 6 points below Inter and Milan, battling for the top spots in the Champions League, with 10 matches remaining in the league. There will be a fierce battle for position all the way to the conclusion.
