Juventus vs Lazio Prediction
Juventus are not in a good position right now. A 15-point deduction in the league has seen Massimiliano Allegri's men drop 13th in the league, and it is evident that the decision has impacted the morale of the players, who had strung together a decent run of form before the verdict.
They have now been winless in their last three league games, and Allegri has stoked fears by admitting that Juventus could be involved in a relegation battle. As such, the Coppa Italia can be interpreted in different ways; as a hindrance, or as a potential chance to provide some positivity to what has been a horrid season so far.
Lazio, on the other hand, are third in the league, having, like many other teams, benefitted from Juventus' drop down the league table. They are 15 points behind league leaders Napoli, and will hope to ensure that they maintain their current position on the league table and qualify for Champions League football next season.
The likes of Atalanta, AC Milan and Roma are circling extremely close though; and will be favorites ahead of Lazio to finish in the top four.
Juventus are in a bad state right now. We expect Lazio to win here.
Prediction: Juventus 0-1 Lazio
