Will Lazio Rome confirm its upward trend?
Take two! In the middle of a busy week in Italy’s top flight, bottom-of-the-table Pisa once again faces a prominent opponent. After a surprising draw at AC Milan, the promoted team now faces the Biancocelesti. As expected, the roles for a Pisa vs. Lazio Rome tip are clearly defined.
The team from the capital, which defeated Juventus Turin last weekend and is unbeaten in four league games, is expected to be the favorite against the promoted team, which is still winless this season. And we too can find few arguments in our Pisa vs. Lazio Rome prediction as to why the team from the city with the world-famous leaning tower should manage its first league win this coming Thursday.
In four home games, the team of former Italian national striker Alberto Gilardino has not even managed to score a single goal. This could remain unchanged against the defensively strong visitors even after the upcoming match, as the Laziali have kept two clean sheets in the league recently.
Pisa – Lazio Rome Head-to-head comparison / H2H record
The two teams have faced each other six times in total. However, these encounters are already a long time ago, with the last duel taking place over 30 years ago. Accordingly, these old results are of little significance for the upcoming match.
Nevertheless, for the sake of completeness, here is the record: Pisa has only beaten Lazio Rome once, the Biancocelesti have won twice, and the points have been shared three times. If the team from the Italian capital remains unbeaten in the upcoming match, there will be no high betting odds for this tip on Pisa vs. Lazio Rome.
Pisa – Lazio Rome Tip
Difficult times for AC Pisa in Italy’s top flight. After eight matchdays, last year’s Serie B runners-up are still without a win. Nevertheless, the 2-2 draw with former leaders AC Milan was of course a respectable result. One that gives the team confidence and shows that Pisa can compete in Serie A.
Especially since Alberto Gilardino’s team almost took all three points from San Siro. But a late equalizer in stoppage time meant that the game ended in a fourth draw of the season. In pursuit of their first win of the season, they now return to home turf. However, “I Torri” have so far failed to prove their Serie A credentials at home.
Gilardino’s team has not scored a single goal in four home games. Last season, Pisa was the most prolific team in home games in the Italian second division after champions Sassuolo. However, they also conceded only two goals, meaning that two of their four home games ended in goalless draws.
Their upcoming opponents are slowly picking up speed this season. Maurizio Sarri’s team has won two of its only three victories this season in the last four matchdays. Overall, the Laziali have remained completely undefeated during this period. The basis for this upswing was a strong defense.
Apart from the wild 3-3 draw against Torino, they have kept a clean sheet in three of their last four league games. However, Lazio Rome has not yet been able to replicate its away form from last season in the new season. In four away games, Sarri’s team has only managed one win, and the three goals scored in away games do not necessarily indicate a great offensive threat.
That’s why we’re keeping a low profile when it comes to a Pisa vs. Lazio Rome prediction for an away win. Nevertheless, we assume that the team from the Italian capital will not lose the upcoming match and will take at least one point home with them. In addition to their greater individual class, the visitors’ current form also speaks in their favor.
