Torino to Seize the Opportunity
Lazio have underperformed this season. Torino have the chance to surpass Maurizio Sarri’s men in the table in this match, so this should be a cagey affair. The home side’s success is built on their defence. Therefore, we are backing them to win and keep a clean sheet for our first Torino vs Lazio prediction.
Ivan Juric’s side have been conceding 0.83 goals per league game this season, which means they have the third-best defensive record in Serie A. Only Inter Milan and Juventus have conceded fewer goals this season.
However, this average drops even further to 0.5 in their home matches. No side in Italy has a better home defensive record in this campaign. Moreover, Torino have kept a clean sheet in five of their last six Serie A matches in front of their fans.
Bet 1: Torino to win & NG @ 3.40 Bet9ja
A Cagey First Half is on the Cards
The second of our Torino vs Lazio predictions is for the scores to be level at half-time before the home side go on to win the game. This bet is available at odds of 5.60 with Bet9ja.
Torino haven’t been behind at the break in any of their 12 league matches at the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino this season. It’s been all square at half-time in nine of those and it’s easy to see why. Over that period, there was an average of just 0.42 first-half goals for both teams combined.
Torino haven’t trailed going in the second half in any of their last eight head-to-heads with Lazio. Five of those games were 0-0 at half-time.
Bet 2: Half-time/full-time – draw/Torino @ 5.40 Bet9ja
Stats Suggest Second Half Action
The next of our tips for this match builds on our previous bet. The stats for first-half goals are quite bleak in Tornio games, but the action tends to pick up after the break. While the first halves of matches involving Juric’s side have seen an average of just 0.42 goals, the second halves have seen an average of 1.25. That’s a significant increase of 197%.
Lazio matches also see more goals after the break. There has been an average of 1.58 second-half goals in their 12 Serie A matches this season. The first halves have seen 1.17. Therefore, I’m happy to back the second half to see more goals than the first with Bet9ja and, surprisingly, this bet is odds against.
Bet 3: Highest scoring half – second half @2.20 Bet9ja
Zapata is the Danger Man
While we expect goals to be hard to come by in this game, Torino have been able to rely on Duvan Zapata in recent weeks. The Colombian international made the switch from Atalanta in the summer and is the club’s top scorer in the league with seven goals.
Zapata has scored three in his last four matches. He consistently positions himself in the attacking third. His average of 8.58 progressive passes received puts him in the 93rd percentile among all other forwards across Europe’s top five leagues. Duvan had two shots on target and found the net in the recent win over Lecce.
Bet 4: Zapata to score @ 3.75 Bet9ja
