Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Lazio
Match Time & Date:

02:45 PM
Prediction: 2-1
Udinese
After suffering a heavy 4-0 loss to Napoli at the weekend, Lazio will look to keep their Champions League hopes alive when they take on Udinese on Thursday evening. The Biancocelesti continue with their habit of producing much better showings at home than on travels, and they are likely to go all guns blazing at Udinese. Since Maurizio Sarri has a full squad to choose from, home win should be considered.
The Zebrette, on the other hand, head into the match following a goalless draw with Genoa. Udinese are on a five-game winless run on the road, and seeing that Lazio have turned Stadio Olimpico into a real fortress, we predict that the visitors are going to return home empty-handed. There are no fresh injury worries in the away team ahead of the trip to the “Eternal City”. In their last meeting in the Serie A Lazio defeated Udinese thanks to Adam Marusic’s goal.
