Lazio vs AC Milan

Lazio have been in strong form, winning five of their last six matches across all competitions. Their domestic campaign has been particularly impressive, as they head into this match following three consecutive league victories, including a narrow win away to Udinese in their most recent outing. AC Milan are also unbeaten in their last four matches, showing resilience with recent league results including a win over Venezia and a draw against Juventus. While their form has been steady, they have conceded in most of their recent fixtures, keeping only one clean sheet in their last six games.

The recent history between these two clubs highlights a competitive edge for the home side. Lazio have remained unbeaten in their last two meetings with AC Milan, securing a victory in their most recent encounter after an earlier draw.

• Lazio enter the fixture with six players ruled out and one in doubt due to injury.
• AC Milan have no players reported as out or in doubt for this match.
• Lazio have maintained a perfect start to their Serie A campaign with three wins from three matches.
• Lazio have demonstrated defensive solidity in league play, conceding only once in their opening three matches.

Lazio hold a strong domestic record and have enjoyed the better of recent meetings, but their significant list of absentees may impact their preparations. AC Milan arrive with a full squad available and have shown they can secure points on their travels. Given the current form of both sides, a closely contested draw appears a possible outcome.
