Team Analysis
Lazio and Juventus are set to clash in one of the most thrilling matches of Serie A's Gameweek No 30 on Saturday afternoon at Stadio Olimpico. Recent performances have shown Juventus claiming only a single victory out of their last eight league matches, while Lazio enter this game after a 3-2 triumph at Frosinone. A trend of high-scoring games has been noticed, with four of Juventus' last five league games yielding three or more goals. Lazio showed an impressive comeback with their 3-2 victory over Frosinone, ending their run of four sequential losses. On the other hand, Juventus could only manage a goalless tie in their home game against Genoa before the international break.

Head-to-Head
Looking at the recent head-to-head record, Juventus come into this match with an upper hand, having won three of the last four encounters with Lazio. In the current season, they beat Lazio 3-1 in September at the Allianz Stadium. Goal-rich games have been a characteristic of these intense rivalries, with four of the last five matches recording a minimum of three goals.

Odds Analysis
As for the odds analysis, Juventus' stalemate with Genoa was followed by Dusan Vlahovic’s red card in the stoppage time. As a result, the team's top scorer will be unavailable for the Saturday match in the capital. Given that Juventus have had difficulty delivering satisfying performances even with Vlahovic, they have won merely one out of the previous eight league games. Consequently, the odds favor a Lazio win or draw. Also, both the teams have a high likelihood of scoring at attractive odds of 2.00, considering the recent performances. The 3-2 victory at Frosinone recorded a xG of more than 3.00 for Lazio. Out of the previous five matches in all competitions, four have seen three or more goals. Adding to this, a similar scoring trend has been noticed in the last five league matches of Juventus and the head-to-head clashes between these rivals, making it an expected high-scoring bout over the weekend.

Pick: Under 2.5 goals
