Lazio vs Inter Milan Prediction and Football Tips
Premier League football tips – Lazio vs Inter Milan prediction
Lazio can call upon Miroslav Klose once again and the German striker should slot straight back in to the team. Lucas Biglia and Stefan de Vrij are also nearing a return to the team and both players could start is passed fit. Senad Lulic and Lorik Cana are both out with injury.
With the likes of Jonathan, Dodo and Zdravko Kuzmanovic still missing with injury, Roberto Mancini could stick to the same Inter Milan team that was held 0-0 by Chievo last week. This means that there will be no starting places for the on loan Xherdan Shaqiri and Lukas Podolski.
Probable Line-ups
Lazio: 4-3-3 formation: Marchetti; Radu, Vrij, Mauricio, Basta; Parolo, Cataldi, Biglia; Candreva, Anderson, Klose
Inter Milan: 4-3-1-2 formation: Handanovic; D’Ambrosio, Vidic, Ranocchia, Jesus; Medel, Bozovic, Guarin; Hernanes; Icardi, Palacio

- Over the course of their previous 10 matches, Inter Milan have scored an average of 1.1 goals and conceded an average of 1 goal per game
- There have been over 2.5 goals scored in 4 of Lazio’s previous 10 matches

- The reverse fixture finished 2-2 at the San Siro
Lazio have given themselves a great opportunity to seal second place in Serie A and a place in next season’s Champions League. The fact they have won only once in their last 4 games will be a little bit of a concern but home form in general has been excellent. Lazio have won 6 of their last 8 Serie A matches at the Stadio Olimpico, scoring 19 goals over the course of those 6 victories.
Inter Milan on the other hand, are too far adrift of a Champions League place and are battling for a Europa League spot. Currently 3 points off Fiorentina in fifth, a win here would seriously enhance their chances of clinching European football next season. Undefeated in their last 6 Serie A games, this will be Inter’s biggest test since travelling to Sampdoria in March, a game they lost 1-0.
This should be a close game, with very little to split the teams.
