Venezia vs Lazio: Kick-off time, form guide, predicted XIs and a score tip | OneFootball

Lazio head to Venice for the final Serie A round before the international break, facing newly promoted Venezia at the Pier Luigi Penzo. Kick-off is at 20:45 local time on Saturday, 19 September.

According to The Laziali, Venezia are bottom after four defeats and no points, while Lazio have 10 points from their first four matches and sit fourth. The Biancocelesti dropped points for the first time last weekend, letting a two-goal lead slip in a 2-2 draw with Milan.

Giovanni Stroppa’s side began with a home defeat to Lecce, then another 0-2 home loss to AC Milan. They then lost 2-3 to fellow newly promoted Frosinone, before a 2-4 defeat to Fiorentina, Franco Mastantuono scoring a hat-trick.

Gattuso’s men had won three league games on the spin, beating Bologna and Genoa 1-0, then coming from behind in Udine thanks to Albert Gudmundsson’s winner. Lazio are unbeaten in their last nine meetings with Venezia in all competitions, with six wins and three draws.

Probable XIs, Venezia in a three-five-two, Stankovic, Schingtienne, Moreno, Juan Jesus, Hainaut, Kike Perez, Basic, Sohm, Haps, Yeboah, Adams. Lazio in a four-three-three, Mandas, Floriani Mussolini, Sutalo, Provstgaard, Tavares, Frattesi, Belahyane, Taylor, Cancellieri, Pinamonti, Zaccagni.

Prediction, Venezia 1-2 Lazio. It may not be straightforward for the visitors, and they could need to grind to take all three points against a side still seeking a spark.
