Inter Milan vs Lazio Betting Tips

It should be a classic match-up between two of Serie A’s top teams, but instead it pits the league leading Inter Milan against 12th place and reeling Lazio.

The last couple of games have been fascinating, because they’ve seen Inter Milan score some serious goals. It is still sporadic goal-scoring, eight of Inter’s 22 goals have come in just two games, however a 4-0 thrashing away from home against Udinese was following by a 3-0 crushing of Cagliari in Coppa Italia action.

It might just be a sign that Roberto Mancini’s team is starting to feel a little more comfortable. They’ve got a four-point advantage at the top of the table and the first 16 games have clearly shown that they are once again a legitimate Serie A contender.

Lazio ended a poor run of sorts by beating Udinese 2-1 in Coppa Italia action. However, their Serie A form has been abysmal and they are in serious danger of going two full months without a Serie A win. The attacking rhythm isn’t working and they’ve never been able to rely upon their defence.

Three Reasons for Betting Tips

1. Goods odds

Yes, Lazio are a solid football team, but we still feel pretty happy about the opportunity to have Inter Milan at 3/4 playing at home and taking into account their recent run of form.

2. Lazio attack will get stunted

Inter are not going to give them room to play or a chance to get going, make no mistake about it, this Lazio attack is going to get stunted.

3. Improved goal-scoring output

One of our major early season concerns was the ability for Inter Milan to win games 1-0 all season long. Their recent goal-scoring surge suggests that they might not need to.
