Lazio vs Udinese: prediction for the Serie A fixture
Lazio are set to host Udinese at Stadio Olimpico this Sunday. The hosts have not lost in five games, but will they be able to defeat Udinese? Here's our prediction.

Command Analysis

Lazio

Lazio are enjoying a good run of form. Maurizio Sarri's team is in 3rd place in the Serie A standings, three points behind the current leader Napoli. In the middle of the week, the Eagles were held to a (2:2) by SK Sturm Graz in the Europa League. All four teams in Group F are level on points, so Lazio will have to step up their game to qualify for the playoffs.

Udinese

Udinese were off to a fantastic start in Serie A. Andrea Sottil's men are in 4th place in the standings with 20 points, three points behind Napoli. The team is intent to maintain the position in the top-6, but the competition is intense as Juventus, Inter Milan and Fiorentina strive to strengthen their standings. In the last game, Udinese drew against Atalanta (2:2), extending their unbeaten streak to eight games.

Tip and bets
Lazio failed to beat Sturm Graz in the middle of the week, but they didn't play with their first team. Maurizio Sarri prioritized the game against Udinese, and the Eagles are ready for battle today. The Romans are in good form and they usualy do well at home. Despite Udinese's strong performance in this season, we don't think they will be able to defeat Lazio at Stadio Olimpico.
Our prediction – Lazio to win
Lazio play an open attacking brand of footballl; in the last five games, they have scored 14 goals. Udinese will have to work hard on defense, but we expect the hosts to score. Le Zebrette delivered goals in their previous seven games, so Lazio probably won't keep a clean sheet, either.
Second bet - total over 3 goals
