Lazio Continue Champions League Push at Home Against Genoa
6256

There is a full round of fixtures to look forward to in the Italian Serie A on the weekend including the meeting between Lazio and Genoa on Sunday the 2nd of May.

The match will be played at the Stadio Olimpico, with the hosts beginning the weekend in 6th place on 61 points and the visitors in 13th place on 36 points.

Lazio come into the game having recorded an excellent 3-0 victory over AC Milan last weekend.

That result keeps them in contention to finish in the top four this season and although they begin the week 5 points behind Juventus and AC Milan, Lazio have a game in hand on both teams.

The win over AC Milan means Lazio have won 5 of their last 6 matches, all of which have come in Serie A. In addition to the win against AC Milan, Lazio have defeated Spezia and Benevento at home plus Udinese and Hellas Verona away.

The only defeat in their last 6 games came at Napoli and was a disappointing 5-2 loss.

Trends show Lazio have won all of their last 10 home matches in Serie A, which is a great record and they are undefeated in 30 of their 35 most recent home league fixtures.

At least one goal has been scored by Lazio in all of their last 19 home matches in Serie A plus they have scored 2 or more goals in each of their last 4 Serie A games on home soil.

Genoa come into the match having picked up maximum points in a 2-0 home win over Spezia last weekend. It was an important victory for Genoa who had been struggling to win games recently.

They had failed to win in their previous 4 Serie A fixtures and have now won only 2 of their last 12 Serie A games.

Away form in the League shows Genoa have recorded just a single victory from their last 6 Serie A matches on the road. There have been defeats at Inter Milan, Roma, Juventus, and AC Milan, therefore, it would not be a shock to see Genoa lose this fixture.

Genoa have conceded 2 or more goals in 3 of their last 5 away league games but have scored in each of their last 3 away trips, including Juventus and AC Milan.

Team news and Lazio are without the injured duo of Gonzalo Escalante and Luiz Felipe.

Genoa have doubts over the fitness of Luca Pellegrini who has been suffering from a hamstring injury but both teams should be close to full strength for this match.

Given Lazio’s home form and the struggles of Genoa in recent away games, there can only be one winner in this fixture.

Genoa have shown they can score goals against some of the top teams in Serie A recently but Lazio should score 2 or more goals on their way to victory.
