Lazio vs Roma predictions and betting tips on March 19, 2023

On March 19, Stadio Olimpico (Rome) will host the match of the 27th round of the Serie A, in which Lazio will compete with Roma. The battle will start at 18:00 CET.
Lazio
The team is approaching the following match, which is very important, not in the best shape. Everyone demonstrated a kind of pragmatic understanding of the home 1-2 defeat made by AZ in the 1/8 final battle of the Conference League – the tournament is not a priority for the Italian grandee. The higher mentioned idea was confirmed in Alkmaar – the team lost again. At the same time, having played the first match with the Dutch club, Maurizio Sarri’s wards were able only to achieve a goalless draw in the away struggle with Bologna. There had been four victories in a row by that misfire, including an away 1-0 success with the undisputed leader of the current season of the Serie A, Napoli. Well, “the Eagles” have demonstrated their instability one more time, and again “sharpened” the fight for a place in the top quartet of the Calcio – thus, the opportunity to return to the Champions League next autumn is under question.
Roma
The club, generally speaking, spends the season in about the same vein as its neighbouring opponents. And it goes without saying that Jose Mourinho, unlike Maurizio Sarri, pays attention to the international arena – he is definitely eager to repeat the same trick that had been successful in the case of Manchester United, when it won the Europa League, taking into account the fact that “the Special One” led his new players to success in the Conference League in 2022. After the “adventurous” group stage and the troublesome success in the battle with Red Bull (Salzburg), the Italian club achieved a comfortable 2-0 victory in the match against Real Sociedad in the first match. The San Sebastian confrontation, which took place last Thursday, resulted in a pragmatic goalless draw. At the same time, the Serie A brought the defeat made by the outsider, Cremonese, and, then, a 1-0 failure in the game with Juventus. Moreover, the previous round, where the team had a battle with Sassuolo, ended with a 3-4 score.
The statistics of head-to-head matches
The higher mentioned struggle is a hot Capitol derby. The opponents strictly exchanged victories for five times in a row. The head-to-head match of the first lap of the current season, which was formally called an away one, was won by Lazio due to a single goal scored by Felipe Anderson.
Predictions
Bookmakers consider the opponents to be equal. At the same time, both teams need a victory – thus, we bet on “total: over 2.0” (odd: 1.83).
