Lazio Roma
Match Time & Date:

02:30 PM
Prediction: 2-2
Napoli
All eyes will be on Stadio Olimpico when Lazio and Napoli take on each other in the opening match of the season. The Biancocelesti missed out on a place in the Champions League in the last season finale, but they are going to represent Italy in the Europa League in the 2018/2019 season. Lazio chiefs did well to keep hold of key midfielder Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, who is likely to pose a big threat for Napoli defenders in Saturday’s football match. The Neapolitans are determined to put an end to Juventus’ dominance in the Serie A, but seeing that Cristiano Ronaldo joined the title holders in the summer transfer window, that is easier said than done. Anyhow, Napoli are likely to stick to their attacking style of play against Lazio, which is the main reason why we predict both sides are going to find the net at Stadio Olimpico.
