Why Bet on Milan?
These are not the best days for Milan. First, they were eliminated in the Champions League playoffs after drawing 1-1 at home against Feyenoord and losing 2-1 on aggregate. Then, over the weekend, they fell 2-1 to Torino, missing an opportunity to climb the table.
Right now, they sit in seventh place, outside of European competition. They have 41 points—one less than Fiorentina—after 11 wins, eight draws, and six losses. Their 37 goals scored are the lowest among the league’s top nine teams. Midfielder Tijjani Reijnders is the team’s top scorer with eight goals.
At home, they have lost just one match against Napoli (0-2), but their record hasn’t been as strong as expected, with six wins and six draws. They are currently unbeaten in their last eight home games, though five of those games ended in draws.
Among their injured players are Alessandro Florenzi, Emerson Royal, and Ruben Loftus-Cheek, while Kyle Walker remains doubtful.
Why Bet on Lazio?
It wasn’t the best week for Lazio either. First, they couldn’t get past a goalless draw against a weak Venezia side, which is in the relegation zone. Then, they were eliminated in the Coppa Italia quarterfinals after a 2-0 loss to Inter.
In Serie A,while they are unbeaten in their last four games, they have drawn their previous two matches. With 47 points, they sit in fifth place, five points ahead of sixth and just two behind Juventus, who currently hold the last Champions League spot.
One of Lazio’s biggest concerns is their defense, as their 34 goals conceded are the worst among the league’s top nine teams. They have only kept a clean sheet in three of their last 13 matches.
On the road, they have been solid, recording seven wins, one draw, and five losses. They also arrive with a three-game unbeaten streak and four wins in their last six away matches.
The team’s top scorer, Valentín Castellanos, has nine goals, but the Argentine striker suffered an injury against Napoli and will be out for a few more weeks, meaning he won’t be available against Milan. Elseid Hysaj and Matías Vecino are also sidelined due to injuries, while Fisayo Dele-Bashiru remains doubtful.
Final Betting Analysis: Milan vs. Lazio
It will be a great match to watch at San Siro, with both teams aiming for European competition next season. It was a tough week for both sides, with eliminations, but we believe Lazio is in slightly better shape and won’t go down easily. We expect a draw.
The odds at Gambyl Exchange favor Milan, with a Moneyline of 2.10, while Lazio stands at 3.64, and a draw is at 3.77.
The last time they faced each other was on August 31, 2024, ending in a 2-2 draw in Rome. The previous three meetings were all Milan victories, and at San Siro, the ‘Rossoneri’ have won five consecutive matches, including one in the Coppa Italia.
Go for a draw in the Moneyline. If you bet $100 at 3.77, you will gain $277 for a total payout of $377.
