Lazio aim to leverage its strong home form after losing to AC Milan last weekend.
AC Milan lead Serie A but struggles on the road with just one recent away win.
Both teams have been involved in low-scoring matches recently, suggesting a tight game.

Lazio vs AC Milan

Fresh from their Serie A clash last weekend, Lazio and AC Milan meet once again in the Coppa Italia round of 16.

The capital club lost that fixture but are back at the Stadio Olimpico, where they have done their best work this season. They can do enough to avoid defeat against the Rossoneri, who are a bit unconvincing on their travels.

Lazio News

Lazio drew a bye from the previous round of the Coppa Italia and are set to make their first appearance in this year's competition. Maurizio Sarri's team head into this clash off the back of a 1-0 defeat at AC Milan in a Serie A fixture last weekend.

The capital club are back at the Stadio Olimpico, where they are usually solid. They are unbeaten in six of their last seven matches in front of their fans, earning five wins on this run.

Lazio are usually hard to break down, and this has seen their last seven matches produce under 2.5 goals. Six of those seven fixtures have also offered up under 1.5 goals in both halves.

AC Milan News

AC Milan are in the round of 16 after easing to a 3-0 home victory over Lecce in their previous fixture. They will travel to the capital full of confidence, having claimed a 1-0 Serie A victory over Lazio last weekend.

The Rossoneri have plenty of reasons to be pleased with their campaign so far as they sit top of Serie A on goal difference. However, their away form could use a little improvement, having picked up just one win from their last four matches on the road.

Like the hosts, AC Milan have also been involved in low-scoring outcomes lately, with four or their last five matches producing under 2.5 goals. Three of the last four fixtures on this run have also served up under 1.5 goals in both halves.

Head to Head

AC Milan have eight wins and one draw, while Lazio have been victorious three times in the last 12 matches. While the visitors claimed a 1-0 home victory last weekend, the hosts are unbeaten in seven of the last 10 meetings at the Stadio Olimpico.

Verdict

Lazio v AC Milan

Lazio may have lost last weekend, but boast a solid home record against AC Milan. Having also gone unbeaten in six of their last seven matches at the Stadio Olimpico, the hosts could be backed to earn a win or draw here.

Both teams have been involved in a few low-scoring outcomes this season, and with Lazio's last seven matches producing under 2.5 goals, a repeat could be considered. Having also offered up under 1.5 goals in both halves in six of those matches, a similar pattern could be on the cards.
