Lazio is clear favourite to win against Monza. The hosts have been outstanding this season and are in contention for a finish in the Champions League spots. Backing the hosts to win is the best available option in this fixture.

Matchday 14 in the Italian Serie A sees Lazio host Monza at the Stadio Olimpico, Roma on Thursday.

Lazio is currently third in the Italian Serie A this season. The hosts can move into the top two with a win in this game. They have picked up 27 points in the league and are three points away from AC Milan who occupy the second position.

Maurizio Sarri's team has won three of their last five games in all competitions. Lazio come into this game on the back of a one nil win away to AS Roma. Felipe Anderson gave Lazio the lead before the half hour mark and they were able to see out a win.

Lazio is one of the best scoring sides in the league this season. They have scored 25 goals in the Serie A this season, averaging almost two goals per game. Only Napoli and AC Milan have a better goal tally than Lazio in the league.

The hosts have also been spectacular defensively. Lazio has conceded the fewest number of goals in Serie A this season, with just eight goals conceded in thirteen league games. Lazio is in very good form to shut out the visitors in this match.

Monza hasn't been brilliant on their return to the Serie A. The visitors are 15th in the league with 13 points from 13 league games. They have lost three of their last five games in all competitions, scoring six times and conceding nine goals.

The away team has been particularly poor away from home. They have lost four out of six away games in the league this season. Monza has lost two consecutive games away from home in the league — a 1-0 defeat against Empoli followed by a 4-1 loss against AC Milan.

This is the first meeting between these two teams. Lazio has more experience and is in better form than the visitors. Backing the hosts to win at home to a weak Monza side is the best available option in this game.

意甲第14比赛日将于周四在罗马奥林匹克球场迎战拉齐奥主场蒙扎。

毛里齐奥·萨里的球队在最近的五场比赛中取得了三场胜利。拉齐奥在客场1比0战胜罗马的情况下进入本场比赛。菲利佩·安德森在比赛进行到半小时前就帮助拉齐奥取得了领先，他们最终赢得了一场胜利。

拉齐奥是本赛季联赛进球最好的球队之一。本赛季他们已经在意甲打进了25球，场均几乎打入2球。联赛中只有那不勒斯和AC米兰的进球数比拉齐奥好。

东道主的防守也非常出色。拉齐奥本赛季是意甲丢球最少的球队，13场联赛只丢了8球。拉齐奥在这场比赛中状态很好，把客队拒之门外。

蒙扎在回到意甲后表现并不出色。客队在13场联赛中积13分，排名联赛第15。他们在最近的5场比赛中输了3场，进了6球丢了9球。

客场的球队在客场表现尤其糟糕。本赛季他们在联赛的六场客场比赛中输了四场。蒙扎已经在联赛客场连续输了两场比赛——先是0 -1输给恩波利，然后是4-1输给AC米兰。

这是两支球队的首次会面。拉齐奥比客队更有经验，状态也更好。支持东道主在主场战胜弱小的蒙扎队是本场比赛最好的选择。
