Bookmaker Ratings Prediction Two: Total goals: Under 2.5 — 1.66
Bookmaker Ratings Prediction Three: Both teams to score: NO — 1.79
Although Lazio have one win in their last five games, CFR Cluj aren’t a match for them and they proved that by beating the Romanian side 1-0 in the reverse fixture with ten men.
The reverse fixture ended with under 2.5 goals and Lazio’s last five matches ended with under 2.5 goals, hence the chances of the return leg ending with under 2.5 goals are high.
Although Lazio conceded in four of their last five games, it’s unlikely they would concede against CFR Cluj. The reverse fixture ended with a clean sheet for Lazio and Cluj don’t perform well against a well organised side.
The Romanian side lost two of their last four league matches but lost three of their last five matches, including the 1-0 defeat to Lazio in the first leg of the Europa Conference League round of 32.
Despite their recent poor form, CFR Cluj are occupying the 2nd position with 50 points after 25 matches but they will host a league game against Arges Pitesti on Sunday before the game against Lazio.
The Italian side have won two, drawn two and lost one in their last five Serie A matches, although both draws came in their last two matches. Lazio bounced back to winning ways on Thursday when they were forced to finish the majority of the game with ten men against CFR Cluj.
The White and Sky Blues side are in the 6th position in the Serie A table with 39 points after 22 matches but they can force their way into the top four if they beat Salernitana on Sunday.
We say CFR Cluj 0-1 Lazio. The Serie A side won the reverse fixture 1-0 with 10 men and they are likely to win the return leg in Romania because the quality in their team will be too much for CFR Cluj to contain.
The reverse fixture lacked goals, and the return leg is likely to end similarly.
Lazio are likely not to lose to CFR Cluj in Romania.
