Another year and another scudetto for Juventus. The joke that is the one-club Serie A continues, and this is a match more for Lazio to secure number three rather than any challenge for the gold.
Juventus have been coping well without midfield maestro Pogba, and against Lazio, they will miss that extra force in the core but Vidal and Pirlo still know how to ball, I believe my guy Chiellini is still at the back and Carlito and Morata are the best strike partnership out there now.
Somehow, Lazio have come from the depths and taken over the annoying striker-less clowns called Roma. The mix of Mauri (Amauri? I get confused!) Klose and a very well-coached team that actually go and look to SCORE with STRIKERS has put them in a great position to return back to the big time after about three billion years.
When you say Lazio, the first thing that I always think of is racism and the racist chants they were known for. Since then, a lot more clubs have now been known for a wonderful brand of racist chants. And maybe I've just not been keeping my ear to Italian ground, but I haven't heard of any racial problems coming from them. It's just been about the football.
In this match tonight, Lazio have a great chance of winning, but even though they may win the battle, the war was lost a long time ago. Juventus don't NEED this win, as Champions League is one hundred percent secured, whereas Lazio can really put more pressure on Garcia and Roma if they can get a few g's and get that W.
