Match Time & Date:

Prediction: 3-1
Benevento
After beating Verona in the “City of Love” thanks to Sergej’s late goal, Lazio will be aiming to keep their Champions League hopes alive when they face Benevento on Matchday 31. The Biancocelesti face yet another must-win situation against Benevento, and we are positive that they will go all guns blazing at the Gli Stregoni on Sunday. Caicedo is banned for the hosts, while Luiz Felipe remains on the sidelines with injury.
Anyhow, home win should be considered as the Simone Inzaghi’s troops have turned their Stadio Olimpico into a real fortress. Benevento, on the other hand, failed to impress in a 1-0 loss to Sassuolo, and we do not believe that they are capable of spoiling Lazio’s party in the “Eternal City”. Tuia is sidelined through suspension, while Moncini has yet to recover from his injury. Sau is a major doubt and he will be assessed ahead of the kick-off.
Highlighted Player (Bastos Quissanga):
Born in Luanda (Angola) on November 23, 1991, Bastos Jacinto Quissanga is a powerful defender who plays for Serie A side Lazio. Bastos started his senior career at domestic club Petro de Luanda and after scoring 6 goals in 105 appearances in the league for Os Tricolores, he moved to Russia in 2013, signing a deal with the Premier League side Rostov.
The 184-cm-tall defender proved his worth in the Russian top flight and, as expected, he decided to take a step forward in his career, signing a contract with famous Serie A team Lazio. Bastos failed to establish himself as a first-team regular with the Biancocelesti, but he plays an important role at the Angola national team. Bastos, whose main position is centre-back, made his international debut for the Palancas Negras on August 10, 2011 in a goalless draw against Liberia. His preferred foot is right.
Highlighted Team (Benevento):
FC Benevento secured promotion to the Serie A for the first time in their history at the end of the 2016/2017 campaign, but it has to be noted that they finished the regular season in 5th place in the standings. The Stregoni (Witches) did well to beat Perugia and Carpi in the promotion play-offs and, as a result, they are going to taste a top-flight football.
Benevento were founded in 1929 as Associazione Calcio Benevento and back then they played their home games at Meomartini, the venue which was built by Ciccio Minocchia. Nowadays, the Stregoni welcome their rivals at Stadio Giro Vigorito and the capacity of the stadium is 12.847. Benevento are well known for their yellow jerseys with red stripes, whilst they wear white shirts and white shorts when playing on the travels.
After Napoli, Salernitana and Avellino Benevento become the fourth club from Campania to compete in the Serie A. Matches between the aforementioned teams are well known as Campania derbies.
