Our prediction for the match Lazio vs Viktoria Plzeň
The Roman club significantly declined last season. The 2023 runner-up finished only one point ahead of Fiorentina and placed seventh. However, now, under Baroni’s leadership, they are clearly aiming for fourth place in the final standings. Their opponent has recently grown accustomed to finishing third, behind the favorites from Prague. But this season, only Slavia seems out of reach, while they are competing on equal terms with Sparta for second place.
In the Europa League, the Italians often fielded an experimental lineup or even reserves. However, that did not prevent them from securing six victories and 19 points—one of the best results—sending them straight into the Round of 16. Koubek’s team started back in the summer, advancing through qualification against Kryvbas and Hearts. After the group stage, where they earned 12 points, they knocked out Ferencváros in February, thrashing them 3-0 after a narrow defeat in Budapest. Hosting their guests from Rome, the home side managed to equalize after conceding first, but let in a decisive goal just before the final whistle.
Pedro and his teammates had excellent stats—scoring an average of 2.11 goals while conceding only 0.67. The Czech visitors, who began their campaign in the summer qualifiers, maintain a respectable average of 1.47 goals scored to 1.07 conceded.
