Lazio vs Hellas Verona Preview

Lazio vs Hellas Verona

Competition – Serie A

Stadium – Stadio Olimpico

Date: 19th February 2018

Kick-off time – 19:45 GMT

Lazio is one of the teams that are battling for the third and fourth position in the Italian Serie A this season, however, the Rome based side have slipped recently and find themselves down in 5th position ahead of this match.

They also lost their Europa League game on Thursday and their fans will be looking for them to return to winning ways in this fixture.

Lazio have four losses from their last 5 games and head into this game after a 2-1 loss to Genoa last week.

Lazio scored 3 goals in the reverse fixture and their fans would be hoping they can replicate that form here.

Verona is a team that is accustomed to losing games and they head into this game with a record of six losses out of their last seven games which has left them second from bottom in the league table and five points away from safety.

Can they turn their season around by getting an unlikely win here?  Their fans will certainly hope so.

Verona scored four against Fiorentina away from home recently and they might just have the chance to repeat that here.

They have however, conceded 2 goals per game in the league this season which will delight Lazio’s forward line.
