Inter Milan sit atop the standings, level on points with second-placed with Juventus but sporting a slightly superior goal difference. The Nerazzurri have been enjoying a fantastic season so far, having garnered 54 points from 23 games.

Meanwhile, Lazio are on a roll of their own, a single point shy of this weekend’s opponent. Simone Inzaghi has inspired his side to a title challenge this campaign. There is a certain good-feel around the club that they can go ahead to achieve league success.

Probably the biggest game in the Serie A thus far, Lazio will be looking to get one over their bitter rivals Inter Milan to leapfrog Antonio Conte’s men into the summit of the standings.

Lazio vs Inter Milan Predictions

We’re in for an interesting clash between these two top teams. Games do not get any bigger than this, do they?

With Serie A’s leading goalscorer, Ciro Immobile (25 goals) on one side, and third-placed Romelu Lukaku (17) on the other, I’ll gladly pick goals on both sides. Both teams have scored in 74 percent of Inter’s away games.

Lastly, with a 1-2 or 1-1 hunch, I’ll take Inter in DNB market with fantastic odds. They’re coming off of a confidence-boosting win and I just can’t see them losing this one.
