Lazio vs AC Milan. Prediction and Betting Tips for Serie A

Lazio are having a very weak season and it will be very difficult for the Romans to achieve their main task of getting in the Champions League. At the moment, Simone Inzaghi's team is in sixth place in the table with 58 points in the asset, seven points behind Juventus in the fourth position. It will be almost impossible to win back such a point difference, but the Eagles still have a game in hand, which leaves them some chances for success.

In the past few months, Lazio have gained momentum and started winning one game after another. But then they just tripped over Napoli in the last round. Lazio conceded two goals in 12 minutes and couldn't recover from such a blow. The 2:5 defeat in Naples ended a five-win streak and pushed the Roman club away from the desired fourth line by a critical distance.

AC Milan started the season very strongly, but Stefano Pioli's team lost the leadership battle to Inter Milan a while ago. The Rossoneri remain contenders for the title only in theory: 10 points separate them from the Nerazzurri. It is much more important for AC Milan to stay in the top four - while they are currently second, Napoli in the fifth place are only eight points behind, while still having a game in hand.

AC Milan lost their former form but kept stubbornly earning points in games where the opponents clearly looked better. The recent victories over Parma (3:1) and Genoa (2:1) are obvious examples. However, they run out of luck in a game against Sassuolo - until the 76th minute AC Milan had a minimal lead, but in the end, they did not just let the opponent equalize, but were left without points at all.

A 1:2 home defeat ended AC Milan's successful four-game streak, but more importantly, put the team at risk of dropping out of the top four.
