Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Venezia
Match Time & Date:
22/02/2025
15:00
Prediction: 0-2
Lazio
Venezia will look to put an end to their three-game losing run when they take on Lazio on Matchday 26. I Lagunari suffered yet another dip in form and, as a result, their Serie A status is in great danger. Both Filip Stankovic and Michael Svoboda remain on the sidelines with injuries, while trio Crnigoj – Duncan – Sagrado is rated doubtful for Saturday’s clash. Anyhow, we are not tempted to put our money on the out-of-sorts hosts.
The Biancocelesti, on the other hand, head into the match following a 2-2 draw with Napoli. Unlikely previous seasons, Lazio have been producing fine displays on the road this term and given Venezia’s poor form in 2025, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the capital club. Senegal forward Boulaye Dia is pushing for a start after scoring as a substitute at the weekend, while all Matias Vecino, Taty Castellanos, and Elseid Hysaj remain on the sidelines with injuries for the visiting side.
Highlighted Player (Manuel Lazzari):
Born in Valdagno, Italy on November 29, 1993, Manuel Lazzari is a midfielder who plays for Serie A side SPAL. Lazzari played for the youth teams of Montecchio Maggiore at the start of his football career and in 2011 he moved to Delta Rovigo.
After spending the 2011/2012 season at the club, Manuel Lazzarri joined Giacomense in the summer of 2012 and it has to be noted that he made 24 appearances in the league for the club. At the end of the 2012/2013 season the 174-cm-tall footballer moved to SPAL and he quickly established himself as a first-team regular at the club.
Manuel Lazzari had seven assists in 39 appearances for SPAL in the 2016/2017 Serie B campaign and, no doubt, he helped the club secure promotion to the Italian elite division. His main position is right midfield, but he can play as both right-back and right winger if needed. Manuel Lazzari’s contract with SPAL should expire on June 30, 2021.
Highlighted Team (Lazio):
Lazio Roma are an Italian football club based in Rome. Lazio were founded in 1900 and they compete in the Serie A. The Biancocelesti (The White and Sky Blues) have won two Serie A trophies (1973/1974, 1999/2000), while lifting six Coppa Italia titles.
The capital club play their home games at Stadio Olimpico and Roma are regarded as Lazio’s main rivals.
The two teams face each other in the Derby della Capitale and it is considered the fiercest inter-city derby in Italy. Lazio won UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup in 1999, with the team beating Mallorca in the title game. The same year they managed to clinch the UEFA Super Cup trophy as they outplayed English giants Manchester United at Stade Louis II, Monaco.
The likes of Pavel Nedved, Giuseppe Favalli, Juan Sebastian Veron, Sinisa Mihajlovic, Roberto Mancini, Giuseppe Signori, Miroslav Klose and Simone Inzaghi are notable footballers who played for Lazio in the past.
