Lazio v Inter Milan - 7:45pm, 16th February
Sunday night sees our attention turn to Rome, as Lazio welcome Inter Milan with just one point separating the two sides in the Serie A table. With that statistic, you’d be forgiven for thinking that these are the top two in the division, but actually Lazio are third, also a single point behind reigning champions Juventus. Given that they’re eleven points clear of Atalanta, and fourteen points clear of fierce rivals Roma, Lazio are looking increasingly likely to finish in the top three for just the fifth time this millenium. They won’t just settle for that though, and will pull out all the stops in order to maintain their push to be champions for the first time in twenty years, in what is arguably the tightest title race since 2002. Whatever happens, they will largely have Ciro Immobile to thank for his 25 goals in 23 appearances, and they’ll be hoping he can edge them into top spot on Sunday.
Inter Milan earned our focus in last week’s European Football Betting Odds, ahead of their clash with rival AC Milan, in a match that finished 4-2 in their favour. With that result, they’ve still only lost one match so far this season, and they look almost certain to finish in the top three of the Italian top flight for the first time since 2011. What’s more, Juventus’ 2-1 loss at Verona on the same day has seen them back into pole position, and they’ll be keen to remain there. Antonio Conte has begun to experiment with tactics in recent weeks, which makes Inter Milan highly unpredictable at present, but in a largely positive way, particularly given that the main change is to bolster the attack, with the support of traditional number 10 Christian Eriksen. Both Romelu Lukaku and Lautaro Martinez could be very grateful if the gamble leads to goals.
