Lazio 1/2 to beat Torino in Monday’s Serie A battle

Competition: Serie A

Market: Lazio to beat Torino

Odds: 1/2 @ Bet365

The Italian league is back for another round of games that will likely prove to be incredibly exciting. The league table is exceptionally tight, with the sides at the top jostling for position, with seven points separating five teams. With this in mind, Lazio host Torino on Monday evening, in a game that both sides will be desperate to win.

Lazio have been in good form this campaign and they are looking like a team that could sneak into a Champions League place come the end of the season. 32 points from 14 games is a very good return, and they actually have a game in hand over the three sides at the top, meaning they can reduce the gap further if they win both their games. In their last five, they have won three, drawn one and lost one, while they have scored 27 goals and conceded 10 times this season. If they continue in this sort of form, then the sides above them will be looking back over their shoulders with worried glances.

Torino have been battling in midtable and are looking relatively safe so far. After 15 games they have picked up 20 points, and they are unbeaten in their last five. However, they have only won one of these games, and have actually drawn their last four games in a row. This run has seen them lose ground on those above them, and they really need a win to get their season back on track. With all of this in mind, we are backing Lazio with odds of 1/2 from Bet365.
