Juventus will welcome Lazio to the Allianz Stadium on Sunday in a highly anticipated Serie A clash that could have significant implications for the European qualification spots.
The Old Lady looked every bit a side gathering momentum last weekend, cruising past Parma 4–1 to record a second straight Serie A win by a margin of three goals or more as their push toward a top-four finish gathers pace.
That upward trend was abruptly checked in midweek, however, when a heavy 3–0 defeat to Atalanta ended their Coppa Italia run. With one competition now out of the way, league matters take centre stage for the Bianconeri, and their domestic consistency under Luciano Spalletti suggests a swift response is likely.
Indeed, that cup loss was just their third defeat in 21 matches under the Italian coach, and it would take a special effort from the visitors to add to that tally, especially given Juventus remain one of only two Serie A teams yet to suffer a home league defeat this season, having won seven and drawn four at their own ground.
The visitors, meanwhile, edged out Genoa in dramatic fashion last time out, converting a stoppage-time penalty to secure a 3–2 victory in a match played amid fan protests that left the stadium largely deserted.
That late success marked the first occasion since early October that Maurizio Sarri’s side managed to score more than twice in a competitive fixture, lifting them into eighth place in the table.
Even so, a nine-point gap to the top six at the start of this round makes qualification for European competition next season a challenging prospect. Encouragingly, Lazio’s recent form away from home offers some hope, as they travel unbeaten in four league matches, winning twice and conceding just once across those games.

Juventus vs Lazio prediction: Home team to get a victory
Key statistics
- Juventus have scored three-plus goals in two of their last four home games in Serie A.
- The Old Lady are unbeaten in their last five home games in Serie A.
- Juventus have not conceded against Lazio in four of their last five home games.
Correct score prediction: Juventus 3-0 Lazio
The home side will maintain their defensive discipline while exploiting the vulnerabilities in the visitors' backline. We predict a 3-0 victory for Juventus because they have been particularly formidable at the Allianz Stadium this season.
While the Bianconeri have dealt with some inconsistency away from home, their ability to control the tempo of the game in Turin remains their greatest strength. They managed to keep a clean sheet in their recent 3-0 victory against Napoli, demonstrating that they can shut down attacks.
Furthermore, the last two times these teams met in Turin in competitive league action, Juventus emerged victorious with clean sheets. We expect them to repeat that performance and secure all three points without conceding.
Pre-match odds and win probability: Home side clear favourites
- Home: 8/15 (1.53) – 65.2%
- Draw: 29/10 (3.90) – 25.6%
- Away: 11/2 (6.50) – 15.4%

Most recent head-to-head: Juventus dominate at home
Looking at the history between these two Italian giants, the rivalry remains incredibly competitive, with momentum swinging frequently between the sides. However, Juventus have had better outcomes against Lazio while playing at home.
In the last five meetings across all competitions, Juventus have won two matches, Lazio have two, and one game ended in a draw, but the Old Lady have won their last five home games against their opponent.
The most recent encounter took place in October 2025, where Lazio secured a narrow 1-0 win at the Stadio Olimpico. Before that, the teams played out a 1-1 draw in May 2025. However, in late 2024, the Bianconeri earned a 1-0 home win in the league.

Player to watch: Jonathan David
Jonathan David has been a consistent performer for Juventus this season and he is the player we expect to make the biggest impact on Sunday against Lazio. He is currently the second-highest goal scorer for the Old Lady, with five goals and four assists this season.
The forward has been central to the Old Lady's attacking fluidity and was on the scoresheet in their last match against Parma. He has shown great consistency in his finishing and his ability to create chances in games.
