-------------------------------------------------------
Juventus were beaten 1-0 by Lazio in their last league game on Friday. The result was a frustrating one for coach Massimiliano Allegri, with the Old Lady seeing a major dip in form. They are now winless in four competitive matches, drawing and losing two each. Extending that sequence, Juventus have drawn and lost four games each across their last nine matches. Allegri changed the formation against Lazio to 4-3-3, which is a far cry from his usual 3-5-2. Regardless of the formations, Juventus are in the middle of a poor run even at this venue. They have drawn three and lost one of their last five matches held at this venue. With goals conceded in four of those games, it is evident that Juventus are struggling to hold opponents at bay.
Lazio started their reign under Igor Tudor with a narrow 1-0 win over Juventus. They are now on a two-game winning run, having defeated Frosinone 3-2 in the last match. It remains to be seen if they can sustain the momentum and make it three wins in a row. The visitors were defeated by Juventus in this competition last year, in the quarterfinals, so they would be plotting a revenge result. Lazio started this tournament this season in the round of 16 and has defeated Genoa and Roma to reach this tie. Both of those wins have come by a 1-0 score for Lazio, hinting at another potential low-scorer on this trip. That said, Lazio’s recent matches on the road have been high on goals. They have conceded seven goals in their last three away matches and would look to improve their defensive performances to stay alive in the tie for the second leg.
Juventus possible starting lineup:
Szczesny; Danilo, Bremer, Rugani, De Sciglio; McKennie, Locatelli, Rabiot; Weah, Vlahovic, Chiesa
Lazio possible starting lineup:
Mandas; Casale, Romagnoli, Gila; Marusic, Kamada, Cataldi, Pellegrini; Zaccagni, Alberto; Immobile
