- Venue: Stadio Olimpico (Rome)
After disappointing seventh position last season, Lazio are fighting to return to the top four teams in Serie A and place in the Champions League. Currently, Marco Baroni's team is only one point behind the desired spot. In the Europa League, Lazio have a good chance to progress to the quarterfinal, so that competition could be another in which Lazio could secure the elite European competition. Lazio have not had a defeat in the last three matches. In the previous game, they played 1-1 at home against Udinese. The home side finished the match with xG of only 0.84, while the guests had 1.31, so Lazio could be satisfied for not finishing the tie empty-handed.
Slavia Prague are too good for all teams in the Czech Republic this season, but Plzen put them in a solid position to at least fight for the second position with Sparta. However, Miroslav Koubek's team hasn't impressed lately, with only two wins in the last five matches. Last weekend, Plzen played 0-0 on the road against Pardubice. Plzen was a better team, but they failed to capitalize on dominance. Now, Koubek's team will travel to Rome, where they will try to make a big surprise against Lazio.
Lazio vs Plzen pick: Lazio to win and cover AH -1.5 spread
Last week, Lazio won 2-1 in Plzen and will have a big advantage ahead of the second leg. The teams were pretty even in the first match, but Lazio's better efficiency was enough for victory. Lazio is surely the better side and should win and cover the AH -1.5 spread on Thursday against Plzen.
