Roma vs Lazio Betting Tips

It’s a classic Rome derby, Lazio are a reeling contender, while Roma are looking to bounce back from a disappointing defeat from a clash against Inter Milan last weekend.

The loss to Inter came off the back of a six-game winning run that had seen the 2014-15 runners-up move to the top of the table. They’ve played a positive brand of football, but got stifled by Roberto Mancini’s tough defensive side.

They won’t encounter the same shutdown defence against Lazio, a team that were beaten 3-1 at home by AC Milan last weekend. They’ve lost three of their last four games dropping down to seventh in the league.

Roma have enjoyed the better of this match-up in recent seasons picking up two wins and two draws. They’ll start as favourites in this match-up, but it’s never easy to predict derby game outcomes.

Three Reasons for Betting Tips

1. Lazio away form

They haven’t enjoyed much success away from home. This isn’t really a trip, but still, Roma are the home side.

2. Inter loss was a glitch

Roma stormed to the top of the table with a six-game winning streak, we don’t think it was a fluke, Inter Milan just found a way to stop them.

3. Goods odds

At 10/11, we’re getting near even odds on the Serie A favourites at home against a slumping rival whom they’ve enjoyed recent success against.
