⁠Juventus vs Lazio Prediction, lineups, betting tips & odds

Bianconeri are the only team left unbeaten in the competition.

Thiago Motta’s Juventus are set to lock horns with Lazio in a thrilling encounter at the Old Lady stadium in a bid to continue their unbeaten streak in the competition. 

Juventus have made a strong start to the new season becoming the only side to remain unbeaten in the league. The Bionconeri boast the best defensive record in the competition keeping six clean sheets from the opening seven games of the season. 

It is quite a remarkable feat for a team that seems to have found a perfect balance under their new manager, Thiago Motta. The former Bologna manager has not only changed the team’s fortunes but has also made them an eye-catching team to watch. 

Meanwhile, Lazio have also made a fantastic start to the new season gathering 13 points from the opening seven games as they currently occupy the fourth spot in the standings. 

The team underwent significant changes in the summer. Former Hellas Verona manager Marco Baroni was signed to lead the team and added quality players like Boulaye Dia and Nuno Tavares. So far, everything is looking great for them. Hopefully, they will start to produce results consistently to challenge for the title.

Players to Watch

Dusan Vlahovic (⁠Juventus)

Dusan Vlahovic is thriving under the guidance of Thiago Motta, who has been able to unlock his potential in a very short time. The Serbian international has already scored seven goals this season from nine matches, five of them coming in the league and the other two being a brace against RB Leipzig in the UEFA Champions League. Vlahovic is brimming with confidence and doesn’t seem to stop scoring anytime soon. 

Boulaye Dia (Lazio)

Boulaye Dia has started his tenure with his new team Lazio in an impressive fashion scoring five goals from eight matches in all competitions. 

The Senegalese international has been one of the best forwards in the league in the last two seasons delivering some impressive performances on the road for Salernitana. His performances were enough for Lazio to sign him this summer on loan and what a signing it has turned out to be for them with Dia already hitting the ground running.
