The Italian club have won back-to-back matches in the top-flight, and boast the second-best defensive record in the competition.
However, Lazio have been one of the eye-catching teams in the opening months of the season. They come into this round aiming to respond after their winning run was ended by Parma last Sunday.

Napoli vs. Lazio Prediction
Lazio’s away form has been sketchy throughout the 2024-25 season, and that is a major concern ahead of this showdown in Naples on Sunday.
Napoli’s form has been consistent, and that could be the important angle worth following this weekend. For that reason, the preference is for the home team.
