Lazio Preview
Lazio is not going through a good moment in general, and it was unable to win in its last three games in all competitions. To make matters worse, they are coming off a 0-2 home loss to Atalanta in Serie A.
The only confirmed absentee for coach Maurizio Sarri is Stefan Daniel Radu due to a muscle injury. Ciro Immobile and Felipe Anderson are expected to be the main offensive threats for the capital side in this duel.
Probable lineup (4-3-3): Ivan Provedel; Elseid Hysaj, Nicolo Casale, Alessio Romagnoli, Adam Marusic; Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, Danilo Cataldi, Luis Alberto; Felipe Anderson, Pedro, Ciro Immobile.
Betting on CFR Cluj
CFR Cluj is coming off two consecutive defeats in the local league and now have the difficult task of getting a good result on their trip to Italy. In their last five games, they register three losses and two wins, scoring four goals and conceding the same number. It is important to highlight that one player to keep an eye on will be Rangelo Janga, who has scored four goals in 15 league appearances.
Probable lineup (4-3-3): Simone Scuffet; Camora, Andrei Burca, Yuri, Cristian Manea; Ciprian Ioan Dea, Bismarck Adjei-Boateng, Mihai Bordeianu; Ermal Krasniqi, Daniel Birligea, Emmanuel Yeboah.
JefeBet Prediction
Playing at home in the current Serie A season, Lazio has six wins, three draws and three defeats, with 21 goals scored and 12 conceded.
Despite the fact that the Italians are not at their best, at JefeBet we believe that they will end up beating the Romanian team by at least two goals.
Prediction: Lazio wins by more than one goal (Lazio 2-0 CFR Cluj).
