Lazio vs Juventus prediction and betting tips on March 30, 2024
The pivotal encounter of the 30th round of the Italian championship will take place on Saturday evening in Rome, where the local Lazio will host the Turin-based Juventus. Here is the prediction for this match from our experts.
Lazio
The capital club failed to withstand Bayern Munich and, after losing to Bayern 0-3, exited the Champions League. Now Lazio can fully focus on the domestic championship, where they currently occupy only ninth place after 29 rounds. The team's deficit from the top six is 4 points, which is still recoverable. It is worth noting that Lazio accepted Maurizio Sarri's resignation, and now the team is led by his assistant, Giovanni Martusciello. The first match under the guidance of the new coach was successful for the Romans, securing an away victory against Frosinone with a score of 3-2. The match against Juventus is expected to be a true test for Martusciello.
Juventus
The Turin club had a disappointing previous season and, unlike their opponent, did not participate in European competitions. Nevertheless, this did not help the "Bianconeri" to challenge Inter Milan in the battle for the gold medals. For some time, Juventus tried to keep up with Inter, but eventually slipped down to the third place. In the last round, Juventus failed to win at home against Genoa (0-0), and prior to that, they also shared points with Atalanta in Turin (2-2). Overall, the "Old Lady" has been unable to win in three matches already. Judging by the recent results, Massimiliano Allegri's team needs to keep an eye on the competition in order to maintain their place in the top four. For example, the capital-based Roma is only 8 points behind.
