Lazio vs Inter: Preview

Lazio have had a mixed start to their Serie A season with 3 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses so far. Maurizio Sarri’s men have not quite been able to carry their momentum from their impressive 3-2 win against Roma as they were surprisingly beaten 3-0 against Bologna away from home. Lazio were 2-0 down in the first 20 minutes of the game with goals from Musa Barrow and Arthur Theate. Arron Hickey added a third in the second half and Lazio did not have any answer to Bologna’s attack. To add to this disappointment Francesco Acerbi was shown a second yellow card for dissent and there was no way back for Sarri’s men after going down to 10 men.

Meanwhile the visitors, Inter have started the new season strongly and have 17 points, just 4 points off league leaders Napoli. Inzaghi’s men edged past Sassuolo in their last game before the international break winning 2-1 on the night. The forwards completed the turnaround in the second half with Edin Dzeko scoring just before the hour mark, before Lautaro Martinez scored from the spot to seal all three points for his side. Inter will put their unbeaten run to test against Lazio on Saturday and will surely look for a win to close the gap at the top.

Lazio vs Inter: Prediction

Lazio are unbeaten in their last sixteen games at home and are a tough nut to crack on home soil. Inzaghi’s men will have to dig deep to secure all three points. However we expect Lazio to come right at the defending champions as they look to bounce back from their 3-0 loss against Bologna last time out. It will be an interesting matchup nonetheless, however we predict a draw in this game with the hosts holding firm against the champions at home.
