TEAM NEWS AND RUN OF PLAY

Lazio are beginning to look jaded after a run off difficult games in a short space of time. In less than a week they have faced Genoa at home and Tottenham plus Napoli away. They may rue playing an almost full strength side in London on Thursday as it seemed to have a big effect on them. With injuries to Alvaro Gonzalez and Stefan Radu Lazio have a few important men out.
Siena are off the back off a great run of form that has seen them play through their 6 point deduction in a minumum time.Unbeaten in four matches now the highlight so far the amazing win at the San Siro against Inter.Serse Cosmi has fitness doubts over goalkeeper Andrea Campagnolo, midfielder Manual Coppola and striker Alessandro Rosin.

1X2 BETTING PREDICTION

3.91 The Draw (Pinnacle) looks a good bet between two solid sides who will battle it out. This is a very evenly matched game and although you can make a case for both sides to take the three points I think the draw price should be a lot shorter here. Lazio are the better side no doubt but Siena are in fantastic form at the moment and confidence is flying. Lazio look jaded and fatigue is a factor here.

ASIAN HANDICAP PREDICTION

Siena 1.73 (BetVictor) +1 Handicap looks a decent for the surprisingly good Siena. Coach Cosmi is a superb motivator and he will have Siena believing they can replicate the Inter win. To get a goal start and still be 1.73 is value for me and although Lazio do have quality they look a shadow of their earlier self.

TOTAL GOALS PREDICTION

Under 2.50 goals 1.86 (Pinnacle) Seems a nailed on bet here between two ultra conservative sides. Both sides will try and keep it tight. Siena and Lazio both have rock solid backlines and I think Siena would be happy with a point here. Neither side has really opened up as a really attacking force and 1.86 Unders looks a high price here.
