Udinese - Lazio Football prediction

Udinese and Lazio meet at the Stadio Communale Friuli in a match of the 6th round of Serie A TIM. At this stage, the history of direct confrontations is favorable to the visiting team, which has 4 wins and 1 draw in the last 5 games. In fact, the last time they met in this stadium was on 08-04-2018, in a match for Serie A TIM that ended the victory of Lazio by (1-2). The goals of the match were scored by K. Lasagna (13 ') for Udinese and C. Immobile (26') and Luis Alberto (37 ') for Lazio. In this match the home factor may play an important role, as Udinese presents significant differences in the results achieved at home and as a visitor.

Analysis of Udinese

The home team is currently in 7th place with 8 points earned, after 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss. In the penultimate match, they tied at home to Torino by (1-1). In the last match, he won off to Chievo by (0-2). This is a team that curiously has been stronger outside than at home, because in the last 30 games it registers 6 wins, 2 draws and 7 losses as a visitor; against 2 wins, 6 draws and 7 losses in his stadium. Udinese won 2, drew 3 and lost 5 of their last 10 home games for all competitions. His attack has scored regularly, as he has managed to achieve in 4 of the last 5 games in this competition.

Udinese are a club that has never been able to win Serie A TIM (Italian League), having the best campaign of its history a runner-up in the 1954/55 season. In the current season, the team has begun a relatively good start in the national championship, winning eight of the fifteen points so far, being thus at the top of the table, with a score very close to the first placed. Looking at the performance of Udinese as principal, we see that the team have difficulties even when they play at home, since in the last nine games that he played as a principal, counting only the national championship, won only two and in six of them suffered 1.5 more goals from opponents . I believe that in this confrontation Udinese again will have difficulties to play at home and will leave with a negative score.

Analysis of Lazio

The visiting team is currently in 5th place, with 9 points won, after 3 wins and 2 losses. In the penultimate match, he won away to Empoli by (0-1). In the last match, he won at home to Genoa by (4-1). This is a team little affected by the home factor, that is, presents similar results at home and away, since in the last 30 games has recorded 6 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses as a visitor, with a total of 19 goals scored and 22 suffered. Already inside the home, he won 8 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses, with a total of 34 goals scored and 16 conceded. In the last 10 matches played in all competitions, Lazio has won 5, drawn 1 and lost 4. His attack has scored regularly, as he has managed to achieve in 4 of the last 5 games in this competition.

Lazio is a club that has already won Serie A TIM (Italian League) twice, the most recent title being won in the 1999/00 season, as well as six Italian Cup titles and a UEFA Europa League 1997/98. In the current season, the team has had a good start in the national championship, winning nine of the fifth points played so far, thus being in the zone of classification for the Europa League, very close to the score of the first placed. In the last five games that Lazio played as a visitor, counting only the national championship, in four of them the team scored their goals against the rivals. I believe that in this match Lazio will again be able to score their goals and leave with a positive score for the quality of their cast.

Betting Tip: 

In this confrontation between Udinese and Lazio, I believe that the visiting team will leave with a positive result, since Lazio has a stronger team technically in relation to Udinese and is able to score goals even when playing away from home. In addition, of the last eight games played between the teams, were seven Lazio victories and a draw, showing that the team usually do good games against this opponent.
