Pisa vs Lazio prediction: ITALY: Serie A betting tips on match 2025-10-29 19:45.
[p]Pisa look to finally secure their first Serie A victory of the season at the ninth time of asking as they welcome underperforming heavyweights Lazio to Arena Garibaldi.[/p]
[p]Match News and Current Form[/p]
[p]Pisa were mere minutes away from recording their first Serie A victory in over 34 years until AC Milan frustratingly denied them at the death on Friday night. That 2-2 draw at least proved that Pisa can stand up to the best Italy has to offer, while it also ended their four-game competitive run without a goal. A slow start hasn’t hindered Pisa too much as just three points separate the bottom-five sides ahead of the round, but a blunt attack has been holding them back at home, as they’re yet to even find the net at home this season (D2, L2), although they have only conceded twice in that time too. [/p]
[p]Lazio make the trip north firmly amongst a logjam of sides in mid-table in Serie A, a position they haven’t been able to break out of despite being unbeaten in four league games (W2, D2). Lazio’s 11-point return at this stage is their second-fewest across the last 12 seasons, and one win from their last five away league games hardly inspires much hope of improving upon that here (D2, L2), while winning just twice across their last six encounters against promoted opposition (D3, L1) suggests they can’t take anything for granted here. [/p]
[p]Head-to-Head History[/p]
[p]These sides haven’t met since Lazio won 1-0 back in 1991. Both managers have a poor personal record against their opposition, with Pisa’s Alberto Gilardino losing his last three meetings with Lazio without reply (W1), while Maurizio Sarri fell to defeat in both of his games against Pisa, although they came over 20 years ago whilst in charge of Sangiovannese. [/p]

[p]Key Players to Watch and Missing Players[/p]

Midfielder Danilo Cataldi has found himself heavily involved in recent weeks for Lazio, grabbing a goal, an assist and two yellow cards across his last four appearances.[/p]
[p]Pisa don’t have any fresh injury concerns, while Lazio may have to do without Toma Bašić, who went off injured at the weekend. [/p]
