Lazio vs Venezia Predictions

• Venezia have won just one of their last 10 Serie A games, losing six of those contests by more than a one-goal margin.
• The visitors have shipped seven goals in back-to-back losses to Verona and Sassuolo.
• Lazio have scored 32 goals in their 13 home league games, a tally which is only bettered by Inter in Serie A.

Troubled Venezia face mission impossible

A run of one win in 10 league games has plunged Venezia into serious danger of relegation from Serie A, with Paolo Zanetti’s men sat three points from safety with a game in hand, in 18^th place. Considering that the Venetians have lost seven of their 13 away games in Serie A, a trip to the Stadio Olimpico may spell further trouble on Monday.

Lazio’s home record is amongst the finest in Italy, with Maurizio Sarri’s men winning seven of their 13 home contests this term. Furthermore, they have netted a staggering 32 goals in 13 outings at the Stadio Olimpico, and nine of their last ten wins, in all competitions, have come by more than a one-goal margin.

Indeed, Lazio beat Venezia 3-1 over the festive period, and their tally of 57 goals in Serie A this term is bettered only by Inter. With the league’s top scorer Ciro Immobile scoring nine goals in his last 10 outings, the Europa League-chasers will be supremely confident of a comfortable win, against a side which has been beaten by two or more goals in six of their last 10 games.

Back Lazio for a comfortable evening at home

Only two teams have conceded more than the 51 Serie A goals shipped by Venezia this term, with Zanetti’s men going 16 games without a clean sheet in all competitions. Moreover, no Serie A team has given up as many shots on target as Venezia this season, so the goal-happy hosts should get plenty of chances.

Taking all of that into consideration, confidently backing Lazio to beat a -1 handicap makes sense, while a 3-0 home win looks a strong play on the correct score market.
