Lazio have 38 points from 20 games to occupy the third spot. They are just two points shy of second-placed Inter Milan.
Juventus will hope to put their on-field and off-field woes behind them when they play host to Lazio in the Coppa Italia quarter-finals. The Thursday night contest will be extremely difficult to call for obvious reasons. In a normal season, Juventus would be the favourite to get the win at home, however, this is anything but a normal campaign. Not long ago, Juve received huge points penalty, sending their supporters into massive shock. Besides, their form on the pitch leaves a lot to be desired.
The same cannot be said for Lazio who are going through a good run of form. A lot of the credit has to be given to Maurizio Sarri for the team’s impressive run. The former Juventus coach has done a great job in helping the club stay in the top four positions. Lazio have 38 points from 20 games to occupy the third spot. They are just two points shy of second-placed Inter Milan. However, only one point separates third-placed Lazio from sixth-placed Roma.
Their good form will give Lazio massive confidence of producing a stunning result on Thursday night. In order to avoid yet another defeat, Juventus have to be at the top of their game in the upcoming clash. But form is not on their side, as they are on a three-game winless streak in the league. It includes a 2-0 defeat to Monza in their last game. As things stand, Juventus are struggling at the 13th place with just 23 points from 20 matches.
