National cups are something special for many teams and supporters. Today's match will decide whether it's Lazio or Parma that keep their silverware dream alive.
It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Serie A. That game, against Sassuolo, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Parma.
Lazio form and stats
Lazio participated in Coppa Italia the last season, where they reached the quarter-finals.Lazio have played 9 Serie A games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 4-2-3 (wins-draws-losses). There’s a good atmosphere here at Stadio Olimpico after three straight home wins.
Lazio are confident in defense, having played 182 minutes without conceding a goal in the league.
The Lazio supporters enjoyed the previous match, watching their team host Roma in Serie A and win 3-0. Before that match, a Serie A win away at Parma.
The home team are expected to win this game about three out of four times, according to the bookmaker odds. When checking the database for Lazio home games with this odds we find ten games with a similar winning chance. Resulting in eight wins, two draws and zero defeats. Looking at the victories, six matches were won by at least two goals.
The match schedule is unforgiving for Lazio as they have a new game in only three days, a Serie A match thankfully also at home. Sassuolo are visiting.
A decent goal production from Lazio in their home games so far, with 14 goals from 9 league matches. Lazio have conceded 13 in these home matches. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only -1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
Parma form and stats
Last season their Coppa Italia adventure ended in the 8th finals.There's been little loot from Parma's travels as they have only collected 6 points from 9 away games in the Serie A. Parma only have 1 win to counter their 5 defeats and 3 draws.
Parma are the visiting side once again, their previous game being the 1-1 draw at Sassuolo. A 0-2 loss hosting Lazio before that.
We have done a similar check as we did with the hometeam, looking up recent matches where Parma played away with similar odds. This revealed eleven games. The visitors overcame the odds to win two times, three were draws and the home team won as expected six times.
The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Sampdoria in just three days.
Parma have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 9 league away games 11 goals have been scored. The Parma manager F. Liverani has some worries about the defense as 21 goals have been conceded in these travels. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only -1 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
