Italian Serie A
2009-05-31 - Juventus vs S.S Lazio
A Sports Betting Pick by Cruiser
Analysis:Both teams come into this fixture managing to end their poor run of four games without a win in Serie A.
Juventus made headlines when they sacked coach Claudio Ranieri with two games left until the end of the season. Ciro Ferrara who stepped in, kept the same formation and the team has started winning once again.
This showed when Juventus went to Siena and won 3-0. Alex Del Piero went on record to state that Ferrara injected the team confidence and kept that belief in the players throughout the game.
That win was good enough to enable Juventus to move into second place, overtaking Milan on goal difference with 71 points. If they beat Lazio here then Juventus will earn themselves money and an automatic place in Europe.
Juventus will have a score to settle with Lazio as the visitors Lazio knocked them out of the Coppa Italia at the semi-final stage both at home and away in March and April,losing 2-1 on both occassions. In Serie A also, Lazio held them to a 1-1 draw at the Stadio Olimpico which makes them their bogey team this season.
Lazio, who have already won the Coppa Italia on 13th May, they have kept things easy in Serie A. Until last Wednesday's 1-0 win over Reggina, Lazio has lost each of their last four games in the League.
At the moment Lazio currently lie 10th in Serie A but President Claudio Lotito might consider that unacceptable despite they have won the Coppa Italia. Ferrara will be more motivated here as he looks to stake his place in Turin.
Take Juventus to win and give the 1 1/4 ball here.
Cheers and good luck,
