Lazio vs Milan Betting Tips: BTTS / Over 2.5

Both teams are seeking to recover from recent Serie A disappointments as they enter this match. Lazio experienced a 2:1 loss against Fiorentina on Monday, and Milan hasn’t seen a win in three games following a 1:1 tie with Atalanta last weekend.

It appears likely that goals will be scored at the Olimpico, given Milan’s consistent performance in both the BTTS and over markets this season. Only two of Rosoneri’s past dozen away league games did not result in each team scoring and at least three goals being scored. Furthermore, in Milan’s last four away games, a total of 21 goals were scored, with each team scoring at least twice in all four matches.

Although Lazio isn’t as steady in our favored goal markets, they’ve had the same two results in four out of their last six games under Maurizio Sarri’s management. This includes a 2:1 home loss to Bologna two weeks ago.

In recent encounters between Milan and Lazio over the past three years, Milan has emerged victorious in five of their last six meetings. However, Lazio secured a significant 4:0 victory in their most recent match at this venue last season.

Previous matches between this team at the Olimpico have consistently featured high scoring games. Over 2.5 goals were scored in five out of the last six Serie A matches in Rome, and both teams scored (BTTS) in eight out of their last 11 matches in Rome. A similar pattern can be anticipated for this Friday.

Considering recent form, I expect both teams to score, with Milan potentially edging their way to a narrow away victory.
