Italian Serie A

2009-05-20 - S.S Lazio vs Reggina

A Sports Betting Pick by Cruiser

Analysis:

This match has been brought forward as next week will be the Champions League final so there is the matter of keeping the grounds in shape for the final. While Lazio have nothing left to play for this season, Reggina needs a miracle if they are to stay in Serie A this season.

Lazio won the Coppa Italia this season and are ranked 10th in the standings. Interestingly enough Lazio have not lost to Reggina in their last sex meetings. This will be their best chance to end their four math losing streak as they take on Reggina with a poor away record of 3 wins, 4 draws and 11 defeats away from home. The visitors have scored only 7 away goals which makes it hard for them to score here I believe.

Delio Rossi who is proud to lead the team to Europe after the Coppa Italia triumph said he will be discussing his new contract and will be at the club next season.

For Reggina, even though they ebat Cagliari last weekend, but results from Bologna and Napoli meant survival has virtually become a mission impossible. They will have to win and at the same time hope that Torino and Bologna drop points.

As for the team news, Cristian Brocchi is suspended for Lazio. Juan Pablo Carrizo will start in goal rather than Fernando Muslera. Simone Del Nero will start this match while Tommaso Rocchi will be left on the bench for this tie.

For Reggina, Carlos Valdez returns to the heart of their defence so that means that Antonio Costa will be pushed to midfield. Bernardo Corradi, who has already signed for Udinese, and Francesco Cozza will be kept on the bench.

Reggina have failed to beat Lazio in the past six attempts. That will not change today.

Take Lazio on level ball here.

Cheers and good luck,
Cruiser
