Lazio v Juventus Team News

Lazio and Juventus had contrasting fortunes in the midweek in Coppa Italia, as Lazio crashed out of the Coppa Italia on penalties to AC Milan while Juventus got the better of Atalanta 2-0 on aggregate. The champions remain in with a chance of another domestic double as The Eagles, after losing out on winning the Copa Italia, will now be focusing on the Serie A.

Max Allegri’s Juve need to come out of their trip to Lazio with three points if they are to keep up at the one-point distance off leaders Napoli, who play their respective fixture against third-place Roma right after this meeting between two of the top three.

The White and Blacks are undefeated in their last six games; winning five games and a game ending in a stalemate against Tottenham in the Champions League. However, in the league Juventus are unbeaten in their last 12 league games (W11, D1) including nine successive wins and only one goal conceded coming into this game.

Lazio, on the other hand, have won three games and lost the other three from their last six in all competitions and are in third on 52 points, but it will be tough to see them scaling the difference to the top-two, with Juventus 13 points ahead of them. Meanwhile, Lazio are just a point ahead of Inter Milan, and they will want to further widen that gap with a terrific win against one of the strong sides to beat in world football.

Teams' Possible Starting Lineups:

Lazio (3-4-2-1): Strakosha; Radu, Vrij, Wallace; Lulic, Leiva, Parolo, Basta; Alberto, Milinkovic-Savic; Immobile.
