Lazio vs Juventus Prediction Serie A
Lazio vs Juventus Prediction and Betting Tips for Matchday 8 of the Serie A, scheduled for October 26, 2025, at 19:45 GMT, broadcast live on Amazon Prime, DAZN, Discovery+ and TNT Sports 1. The showdown unfolds at the Stadio Olimpico, with both teams searching for momentum after sluggish starts. Juventus arrive winless in seven matches, while Lazio hover mid-table, desperate to find rhythm under Maurizio Sarri. In this article, you’ll find Serie A Predictions and insights from XpertStats experts.
- Lazio have scored an average of 2.33 goals per match, but conceded 1.33.
- Juventus are struggling in attack with just 0.67 goals scored per game.
- Both sides average over 29 fouls per match: expect a physical battle.
- Lazio have failed to win 10 of their last 15 home Serie A fixtures.
Lazio’s recent games have been a strange mix of promise and frustration. They’ve scored an average of 2.33 goals per match yet kept only one clean sheet in their last fifteen home fixtures. Sarri’s side tends to control possession and draw fouls, averaging 32.67 per match, but the finishing touch has often gone missing. Without their key striker Valentin Castellanos, the burden falls on Zaccagni and Isaksen to produce. Can Sarri’s men finally make the Olimpico a fortress again? Hard to say, but the signs are cautiously improving.
For Juventus, this is more than just another away trip. It’s a credibility test. Igor Tudor’s team has failed to score in three consecutive matches, and their 0.67-goal-per-game average tells its own story. Dusan Vlahovic, who’s netted seven times against Lazio in the past, could be the key to breaking the drought. Still, with Bremer and Cabal sidelined, Juve’s defensive line looks fragile. They average only 1.67 goals per match overall, suggesting another tight, gritty affair could be on the cards.
Both teams’ disciplinary records hint at a stop-start rhythm. Lazio average 11.67 fouls committed and receive 2.67 yellow cards per match, while Juventus aren’t far behind with 13.33 fouls and 2 cards per game. That physical intensity could shape the flow of play. Expect battles in midfield, heavy challenges, and maybe tempers flaring, classic Serie A drama. That’s part of what makes this fixture so watchable.
Ultimately, this game feels like one where control and patience will decide it. Juventus’ history in Rome, scoring in 28 of their last 29 visits, gives them a slight mental edge, but Lazio’s home pressure might just push them to fight harder. Whichever way it swings, this contest promises heart, grit, and no shortage of tension. Stay tuned for more from XpertStats and bold Serie A Predictions every week.

This fixture screams intensity. Lazio and Juventus both rank among the most combative teams in Serie A this season, averaging 32.67 and 29.66 total fouls per match respectively. Lazio’s midfield trio of Guendouzi, Cataldi, and Basic love to press high and disrupt rhythm, while Juve’s Locatelli and Thuram are no strangers to tactical fouls when defending transitions. Historically, clashes between these two sides tend to feature scrappy midfield duels and tight marking on creative players like Zaccagni and Yildiz. With both teams desperate for points, physical battles are almost inevitable. Add in the pressure on both managers — Sarri trying to steady the ship and Tudor seeking a reaction after back-to-back defeats and emotions will run high. Given both teams’ average fouls comfortably exceed 25 per game, betting on Over 25.5 Fouls feels like a realistic, data-backed prediction rather than a gamble.
