Lazio may have lost to Juventus on Saturday, but the Aquile are still in the top four and bound for the Champions League. However, following their Coppa Italia exit last week the Europa League is their only chance of winning silverware this term. They’ll be pushing for success in Europe alongside their aims domestically, especially given the fact that they have a strong squad. With Dynamo Kyiv visiting Rome this week, the Aquile will be hoping to make a mark in the first leg of their last 16 encounter.
The hosts are odds-on favourites to see off the Ukrainians, despite the visitors only losing one game in Europe this term. Their Skënderbeu defeat came after they secured a place in the knockout round, but they could be set for another loss here. Lazio have three wins and a draw at home in Europe this term, and they’re likely to be putting a lot of stock in their Europa League results following their cup exit.
The Aquile will be pushing forward, and their attacking talent should threaten a Dynamo side who have conceded in three of their four Europa League outings this term. They’ve kept just two clean sheets in their last nine in this competition, and we expect the hosts to take advantage of that. After all, Lazio are the top scorers in Serie A this season, while they have racked up 17 goals in the Europa League this season.
However, the Italians have conceded in five of their last six in this competition. They’ve kept two clean sheets in their last 10 home Europa League matches, and they come in to this game against a Dynamo side who have only failed to score once in Europe this term. They should follow that up with a goal against the Aquile, so we’re going with both teams to score in this clash. We’re also going for a 2-1 victory for the hosts, who should take an advantage to Ukraine.
Lazio’s focal point in attack this season has been Ciro Immobile, who has 30 goals from 26 starts across all competitions. While the striker won’t get the chance to impress on the world stage this summer, he could light up the Europa League with some big displays in the coming months. He started last time out in this competition for the Aquile, and he’s already racked up five goals in Europe this term. The striker should get plenty of opportunities against Dynamo, and we’re backing him to score anytime on Thursday.
