Prediction
Predicted score
Our Poisson model rates each team's attack and defence mostly on expected goals, the quality of the chances it makes and allows (blended with last season's ratings early on), then weighs head-to-head history and injuries to calculate the most likely outcome.

In brief

Sixth-placed Juventus host second-placed Lazio. Juventus arrive in mixed form and Lazio in excellent form. Juventus are unbeaten at home and Lazio have won every away game this season. Lazio are one of the league's highest-scoring sides and have one of the league's tightest defences. Past meetings between the two have been fairly even. Both squads have similar injury lists. The model makes Juventus favourites. The bookmakers give Juventus a better chance than the model does.

Key factors in prediction

Statistics baseline: 2026 season
Juventus vs Lazio
Attack strength
1.11 / 0.91
Defence strength
1.49 / 1.22
Head-to-head
1.04 / 0.95
Injury factor
1.00 / 1.00
No units: every number compares a team with an average Premier League side, which scores 1.00. Attack is a team's scoring rate at home or away (built from goals and expected goals) against the league average, so 1.16 means 16% more than average. Defence is the same for goals conceded, turned round so higher is better. Head-to-head and injuries nudge each side's expected goals: 1.15 adds 15%, 0.85 takes 15% off, 1.00 changes nothing.

Where we differ from the bookmakers, they have usually been right: in our backtests, backing the outcomes our model rated higher lost money. Treat a difference as something to look into, not a bet.
