Lazio vs FC Porto Predictions

• Lazio have won nine of their last 11 games and all three Europa League ties.
• Porto have scored in 15 of their 16 games this season.
• Lazio have conceded in 11 of their 14 matches this term.

Le Aquile target another win

Lazio head into gameweek four of the Europa League top of the league phase and they can be backed to maintain their 100% record at Porto’s expense on Thursday.

The hosts have won nine of their last 11 games in all competitions and have beaten Dinamo Kyiv, Nice, and Twente in this competition, scoring nine goals in the process.

Porto to fall flat on the road

Porto are in good shape themselves and have won their last six, but they have only claimed four points from their three Europa League matches and lost 3-2 at Bodo/Glimt in their only away game of the tournament.

Two of their last five competitive away days have ended in defeat and the same could happen in Rome, although they have scored in 15 of their 16 competitive games this term and should find the net against a home side that have only kept three clean sheets in 14 attempts this term.

Castellanos to contribute in Rome

Lazio have conceded exactly once in five of their seven home games this season and three of their last five at the Stadio Olimpico have ended in 2-1 victories, so that looks a good bet in the correct score market.

Anytime goalscorer punters should consider Valentin Castellanos, who has netted seven times in 13 competitive games this term. Two of these have come in the Europa League and five have come at the Stadio Olimpico, so back him to make a difference.
