Serie A, Sunday, 19.05.2024
In Germany, the Bundesliga ends this weekend, but in Italy there will still be one or two point games afterwards. In any case, we won’t be denied this Serie A thriller.
My Inter Milan Lazio Rome prediction, which I will put to the test at a bookmaker with a valid sports betting license, is that Milan will win by zero
Whoever thinks that Internazionale are playing for nothing is wrong. In fact, they are chasing the club record for the maximum number of points collected in a single season.
This record currently stands at 97 points and could be surpassed if Inter win their last two games against Lazio and Verona in equal measure, in which case the Milanese would have 98 points to their name.
But regardless of whether there are external incentives or not, the newly crowned Italian champions know how to motivate themselves week after week.
In their 5:0 thumping victory over Sassuolo, the relegation candidates were unable to benefit from the fact that the “Nerazzurri” had already won the title several weeks ago.
Lazio – like their city rivals – have experienced a small renaissance since the change of coach.
But, as with Roma, it is probably too late to jump on the bandwagon that will take five teams into the top flight next season.
However, there is no denying that Sarri’s successor Tudor is playing much more successful soccer: The Biancocelesti have not lost any of their last six competitive matches (5 wins, 1 draw).
In the previous week, they managed a 2-0 win over Empoli, in which the team – unlike in the past – did not simply give in to the pressure of the opponent during the game, but this time knew how to hold their own until the end.
Lazio’s offense has become a bit more effective under Tudor, but it’s still far from being able to inspire real fear in opposing defenders.
In any case, in my opinion, Lazio could lose to Milan 2-0, as they did in the first half of the season.
In this case, however, it would be the first time since the 2016/2017 season that Inter could win both Serie A matches against the Romans in the same season. That just goes to show you how stubborn the capital side usually are
Getting a game without conceding a goal is not exactly easy, but Inter are one of the few teams who have not conceded more than once.
The Milan side have already conceded 21 times this season. One more clean sheet and they would equal the all-time Serie A record in this category set by Juventus in the 2017/18 season (22 times).
That alone shows you why the “Bet 1 wins to nil” option available on the Crazybuzzer app at odds of around 2.95 has made it onto my shortlist.
In addition, Simone Inzaghi can continue to use the recent second defeat of the season against Sassuolo to keep the tension high within the team.
In any case, the team’s response to this ignominy was felt immediately afterwards by Frosinone, and Lazio could also get their comeuppance.
The Nerazzurri’s ability to motivate themselves will definitely not be the reason if I’m wrong with my Inter Milan Lazio Rome prediction
According to their current Inter Milan Lazio Rome odds, the sports betting providers are offering you a win multiplier of “only” 1.70 for a win for the home side.
However, if we look at the data alone, this decision is quite understandable: After all, the last win for the capital city side at the Giuseppe Meazza dates back to a 1-0 victory in the spring of 2019.
Since then, the Biancocelesti have visited Inter four times without picking up a single point (4 defeats)
Interestingly, you could run the idea through your head of betting on a start-to-finish victory for Milan, which implies a half-time lead (1/1).
Because apart from the fact that the newly crowned champions have celebrated the most wins of this type in the league this season (22), only 2 of the last 10 head-to-head meetings against Lazio have been 0-0 at the break.
Conclusion: Lazio have certainly got their act together since the change of coach, but their final offensive came a little too late to secure a place in the top five of the league.
Inter, on the other hand, played with a lot of anger in their stomachs after the humiliation suffered against Sassuolo and celebrated an outstanding 5-0 victory against Frosinone.
Since the Romans’ offense continues to lack a bit of offensive punch, I can therefore easily with the lush odds in my Inter Milan Lazio betting tip with a one-nil victory of the Milanese
