Juventus vs Lazio in Serie A: Head to Head Statistics, LIVE Streaming Link, teams stats up, results, Date, Time, Watch Live, Points Table
Juventus seek to keep their Scudetto defense alive on Saturday evening, as they welcome a Lazio side that could draw to within three points of the hosts with victory in Turin.
Following an inconsistent spell, the champions are in danger of losing touch with table-topping Inter, while the Aquile are desperate to remain in the mix for a European place at the end of the season.
Ahead of their hard-fought midweek triumph over Serie A newcomers Spezia, Juventus had only won one of their last five games in all competitions.
Having endured a saga very similar to that of Juventus last autumn, when they turned up to face a no-show Napoli side, Lazio has had extra time on the training pitch to prepare for their trip to Turin.
Set to face the city’s second side on Friday night, the game was ultimately delayed just ahead of kickoff, as virus-stricken Torino were forbidden from flying to Rome by the local public health authorities.
Though Lazio and the refereeing team dutifully reported at Stadio Olimpico for the ‘ghost game’, the pretense was quickly resolved soon after.

After that disappointing defeat in Emilia, the Aquile have now lost two of their last three league games – as many as they had in the previous 12 – and suffered that morale-crushing thumping by Bayern.
They will, however, have fond memories of the thrilling conclusion to their last meeting with Juventus, in November, which ended in a 1-1 draw when super sub-Felipe Caicedo scored the equalizing goal for the Biancocelesti deep into stoppage time.
