Lazio vs Celtic Prediction and Betting Tips

today

Lazio and Celtic are back in action in the UEFA Champions League as they prepare to go head-to-head at the Stadio Olimpico on Tuesday. While victory could see Maurizio Sarri’s men move to the top of Group E, the Scottish outfit need all three points to keep their hopes of securing a place in the Europa League alive.

Lazio were left spitting feathers on Saturday as they fell to a 2-1 defeat against last-placed Salernitana in the Italian Serie A. Sarri’s side have now failed to win their last three league games, picking up just one point from a possible nine since the start of November.

Lazio now turn their attention to the Champions League, where they have picked up two wins and one draw in their four matches to sit second in Group E, one point behind first-placed Atletico Madrid.

Elsewhere, Celtic failed to pick up where they dropped off before the international break as they were held to a 1-1 draw by Motherwell in the Scottish Premiership. Prior to that, Brendan Rodgers’ side suffered a 6-0 hammering against Atletico Madrid in the Champions League on November 7, five days before responding with a 6-0 league win over Aberdeen.

Celtic have endured a forgettable campaign in Europe this season and currently find themselves rooted to the bottom of Group E with one point from a possible 12.

  • Celtic are unbeaten in all but one of their last nine matches across all competitions, picking up five wins and three draws since early October.
  • Lazio are unbeaten in their last seven home matches across all competitions, claiming five wins and two draws since August’s 1-0 loss against Genoa.
