Here is the odds given for the result of the Lazio - Juventus game:
Am I surprised with that? Not at all. I was already expecting a really close game and bookmakers are also expecting for the same thing. Maybe there is a gap of sixteen points in the standings but this is easy to misguide someone. Even though Lazio aren't performing the same as the previous season they can still make serious difficulties home. Especially while Juventus are in a bad form I wouldn't bet on them. If I place a bet my choice would be both teams to score @2.03.
It's not strange if we see odds like this and indeed anything is possible regardless of the points distance between the two teams in the standings. Lazio could beat Juventus and vice versa Juventus could also do it. I think it will be difficult to predict the final result and sometimes we are tempted by such big odds. Maybe you should be careful if in the end the two teams only play a draw and that is the most certain possibility in my opinion.Am I surprised with that? Not at all.

Betting on both teams scoring is quite reasonable, but there are things you need to be careful of if the two teams draw without a goal or there is a narrow 1 goal win for one of the teams above. I don't think there are that many goals so I would prefer to bet on under 2.5 goals with odds @1.56 because it is quite safe considering that Serie A is a league where there are rarely so many goals. Moreover, both teams have strong defenses, so the bigger my predictions are in that direction.
