Never really considered formidable title challengers at the beginning of the season, Simone Inzaghi’s men have worked their way into a position of reckoning. Just a single point adrift table-toppers Juventus, a win here could see them usurp the Bianconeri to the summit of the standings.

The Biancocelesti have been scoring for fun this term as goals have been pretty easy to come by for the Roman outfit. Their attack spearheaded by the goal-hungry Ciro Immobile, Lazio have never fallen short of finding the back of the net. Little wonder they are currently topping the goal-scoring charts in the league.

With a game against relegation-threatened Genoa on the horizon, the visiting contingent will be gunning for maximum points in unfamiliar territory as they continue their hunt for the Scudetto. Expect a couple of goals from Lazio before the end of the ninety minutes.

Genoa vs Lazio Team News

Still embroiled in a heated relegation battle at the foot of the standings, Genoa have been on cloud-9 in recent weeks. Currently enjoying a stellar two-game winning streak, the Griffin will feel they can go ahead to cause a major upset against Lazio this weekend.

Last time out in the league, Genoa strolled to a 3-0 victory over nine-man Bologna at the Stadio Renato Dall’Ara. A game where the referee was called into action far too many times, Davide Nicola’s men clinched maximum points to continue their battle for survival.

Bologna having two of their players given their marching orders by the referee, the home side were never really expected to come away with anything substantial from the game. Following suit, three unanswered goals were harrowed past them to condemn Sinisa Mihajlovic’s charges to defeat.

Genoa are currently enjoying a mini-resurgence having refused to admit defeat in their previous four league games. Under the administration of newly-appointed manager Davide Nicola, the home side look a completely different bunch.

For all their improvements, they still sit 18^th on the log and will be required to maintain their current level of performances to climb away from the relegation places. Surely, the Griffin stand a very good chance of beating the drop come the end of the season.

Lazio, on the other hand, were handed a tough and season-defining fixture against Inter Milan on the last matchday. A game that could potentially tell the direction in which the Scudetto will be headed at the close of the campaign, Simone Inzaghi’s men came out tops.

The huge victory against the Nerazzurri must have given Lazio the confidence boost they require to keep up with defending champions Juventus at the top of the standings. Just a single point separating Lazio from league glory, Le Aquile will stop at nothing to ensure the Scudetto becomes a reality.

Genoa vs Lazio Predictions

Lazio’s form is pretty much well-documented. They have been on a roll this entire campaign – Juventus, the only team boasting of a better record in the league. In terms of goals, these cluster of players are heads and shoulders above the rest of the group. As they make the trip to the Stadio Luigi Ferraris, the visiting contingent will be looking to secure maximum points to keep up with league leaders Juventus. Lazio should win this game fairly easily. Genoa seem resurgent in recent weeks and are very likely to give the visitors a run for their money. However, Lazio should have enough about themselves to clinch all three points, perhaps, in a hard-fought manner.
