Our prediction for the Lazio - Viktoria Plzeň match
Last season, the Roman club seriously declined. The 2023 vice-champion was only one point ahead of Fiorentina and finished seventh. But now, under the guidance of Baroni, they are clearly aiming for fourth place in the final table. Their opponent has recently gotten used to third place, behind the favorites from Prague. However, this season only Slavia is unattainable, and they are competing equally with Sparta for the second position.
In the Europa League, the Italians fielded an experimental lineup, sometimes just reservists. Yet this didn't stop them from collecting six wins and 19 points - one of the best results, which took them straight to the Round of 16. Koubaek's players started their campaign in the summer, advancing through Kryvbas and Hearts in the qualifiers. After the main round, where they earned 12 points, they knocked out Ferencváros in February, thrashing them 3-0 after a minimal loss in Budapest. Hosting guests from Rome, the hosts managed to respond to the first goal, but before the final whistle, they conceded a crucial goal.
Pedro and company had excellent stats - scoring 2.11 goals on average, while conceding only 0.67. The visitors from the Czech Republic, who started in the qualifiers in the summer, maintain a pleasant ratio of 1.47/1.07 on average.
