Lazio look to continue their strong run when they host Parma in Serie A on Friday evening. Three wins in their last four, up against a Parma side who have won just once in five. On paper this is Lazio’s to lose – and the Statz projections agree.
Lazio (DLWWW) set up in a 4-3-3 with Pedro and Mattia Zaccagni in attack alongside Daniel Maldini and Gustav Isaksen providing width. Parma (WDDLL) go with a 3-4-3 – high-risk shape for a side that has conceded freely. Gabriel Strefezza leads the Parma forward line.
