Lazio vs Roma Predictions

• Under 2.5 goals has been a winner in the last six Rome derbies
• Five of Lazio’s last six games have gone under 2.5 goals.
• Roma’s last five games have produced just six goals.

Cagey affair expected in Rome

A 2-0 defeat in the first leg of their Europa League quarter-final has damaged morale in the Lazio camp ahead of a fierce Rome derby against Roma, and their arch-rivals could leapfrog them with a win on Sunday.

However, the hosts are unbeaten in five home games, and the designated home side has only lost one of the last 16 Rome derbies, and Roma haven’t won the derby as the away side since 2016.

What we can expect on Sunday is a cagey affair, with Lazio heading into this tie having scored only four goals in their last six games, with five of those fixtures featuring fewer than three goals.

Roma’s last four matches have produced just five goals in total, and under 2.5 goals has landed in seven of these sides’ combined respective home and away games. To add to that, each of the last six Rome derbies have featured fewer than three goals, with a total of six goals scored in these clashes.

Lazio’s last three at home have ended 1-1, so backing under 2.5 goals and a 1-1 correct score prediction appeals.
