The team is doing great wherever they are playing as Lazio has won four games in a row. The Juventus match was the last time out without a victory.
A strong away win for Lazio against Hellas Verona the last match, as Sergej Milinković-Savić were on target. Previous to that game, a home match hosting Spezia in a game that was won 2-1.
Some amazing scenes last match, when Sergej Milinković-Savić scored the winning goal two minutes into stoppage time.
