LiontipsLazio vs Roma. Prediction and Betting Tips for Serie A (September 26, 2021).
Command Analysis
Simone Inzaghi worked with Lazio for many years, but this summer the club bid farewell to him and hired Maurizio Sarrias the new head coach. Also, the club signed a few new players and have retained all the key performers.
The Eagles kicked off the season with a victory against Empoli (3:1), followed by a triumph over Spezia (6:1). However, in the first match against a stronger opponent, Lazio suffered a defeat (0:2 against AC Milan). In the last two rounds, Lazio defended draws with Cagliari (2:2) and Torino (1:1). These results can hardly satisfy the club's ambitions.
Lazio are on a winless streak of four games across all tournaments, including a defeat from Galatasaray in the Europa League. Currently, the Eagles are on the 7th line in the Serie A table.
Roma have also got a new manager. The club clearly wants to win a trophy this season, and for that purpose, they signed a contract with Jose Mourinho. Roma bought several high-quality players in the transfer window and started the season with three straight victories over Fiorentina (3:1), Salernitana (4:0), and Sassuolo (2:1).
The Wolves outplayed CSKA Sofia in the Europa League (5:1) and then lost to Verona at home in the Serie A (2:3). Roma scored the first goal, but couldn't keep control of the game and made several mistakes - Verona were unforgiving.
Earlier this week, Roma defeated Udinese with a modest score of 1:0. At the end of the game, Roma's leader Lorenzo Pellegrini got a red card. He is suspended for the game against Lazio.

Tip and bets
The managers of both teams face different challenges this season. Sarri tries to rebuild Lazio to play with four defenders, and it is not going very well: he is losing the trust of both the fans and the board. Mourinho puts a lot of faith in Nicolò Zaniolo, but the young midfielder hasn't taken a single shot on target in four games. Moreover, the Wolves head into this game without Lorenzo Pellegrini, who is Roma's key midfielder and captain. Lazio don't have any suspensions or injury concerns and thus have an advantage. We think that the Eagles will be able to earn three points here.
Our prediction – Asian handicap (0) to Lazio
Lazio didn't really shine in the previous games, but they are only just getting in form. Roma have already got a few impressive victories, but they regularly make mistakes in defense. The Wolves will also be without their main creative player, so Lazio have a chance to snatch a win.
Second wager - Lazio to win by 1 goal
