Premium Tips
Andy is with Lazio, whose home advantage should tell against a Genoa side beaten in MD1.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Lazio to win and under 2.5 goals | 11/4 | Lazio arrive full of confidence after a disciplined 1-0 win at Bologna, and home advantage at the Olimpico is described as a genuine edge against a Genoa side already beaten 2-0 by Napoli in matchday one. The head-to-head trend strongly favours a tight, low-scoring home win too: Lazio have won all five of the most recent meetings, several of them by narrow margins such as 1-0 and 2-0. With Genoa “typically stubborn” but blunt in front of goal after failing to score in their opener, a controlled, low-event Lazio victory in the 2-0 range fits both the recent pattern and the match’s expected shape. |
| Boulaye Dia anytime scorer and Davide Frattesi over 0.5 shots on target | 5/1 | With Lazio expected to dominate territory against a Genoa defence already breached twice by Napoli, Dia looks well placed as the side’s central goal threat, needing only one clinical touch to land the leg. Frattesi’s role sees him break forward from midfield into advanced positions, and against a Genoa side under early pressure and already shown to be there for the taking, even a single shot on target is a modest requirement. Stacking the lead striker’s goal threat with a supporting midfielder’s shot-volume prop is a sensible way to build value while staying aligned with the expected home-dominance script. |

How Lazio go into the game
Lazio began with an impressive 1-0 win at Bologna, a disciplined away display. The Olimpico should expect them to build on that.
Lazio are well-organised and dangerous, and home advantage is a real edge. Turning promising form into another win is the aim.
How Genoa go into the game
Genoa were beaten 2-0 at home by Napoli in MD1, a tough start. They travel to Rome needing a response.
Genoa are typically stubborn but were second best last time. Taking anything from the Olimpico would be a good result.
