On the 30th of October, in this week 12 match, Lazio will play host to Salernitana in a clash of the Serie A. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy but warm day with daytime temperatures of 22 degrees, which should make for a nice day for football. In their last match, Lazio recorded a 2-0 shutout win against Atalanta. Mattia Zaccagni struck first for Lazio in the 10th minute on a feed from Pedro, then Felipe Anderson added another in the 52nd minute At the end of 90 a dissapointed Atalanta couldn’t manage to score, and Lazio took the shutout win. With 21 points in their last 10 matches Lazio should be reasonably happy with their performance, while in their last match, 11th placed Salernitana, recorded a 1-0 shutout win against Spezia. Pasquale Mazzocchi struck first for Salernitana in the 48th minute, and that was all the excitement the two teams could muster At the end of 90 a dissapointed Spezia couldn’t manage to score, and Salernitana took the shutout win. Salernitana is looking for direction having earned 13 points in their last 10 matches.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season, so it will be interesting how the match turns out. Last season Lazio won the head to head battle with 2 wins.
Joan Gonzalez and Boulaye Dia are the top scorers for Salernitana in the last 5 matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats. Lazio is lucky enough to have a few offensive weapons, with Ciro Immobile and Mattia Zaccagni each having 2 goals in their last 5.
