On February 2, the match of the 1/4 finals of the Italian Cup will take place, in which Juventus Turin will play at home with Lazio Rome. The forecast for this match is given by the famous commentator Viktor Gusev.These teams have already met each other during the current season in the framework of Serie A, and then Juventus managed to win a major victory with a score of 3:0. However, now the Turin club is not so good, having lost to Monza last weekend.
It is very difficult for the "Old Signora" now, first of all, in moral terms, since 15 points were removed from the club in the championship for financial fraud. As a result, she ended up in the middle of the standings, while Lazio continues to fight for the top 4 and, as a result, a ticket to the Champions League.Viktor Gusev believes that the upcoming cup match is a very good opportunity for Juventus to try the season with a clean face.
You can win a trophy in this tournament, and you can still get into the Champions League through the Europa League, the playoffs of which will begin this month.Lazio also misfired last weekend, failing to beat Fiorentina at home, although they beat them after the first half.
Prior to this setback, the Eagles had a three-win streak in a row. However, the expert believes that the motivation of the Romans in the Italian Cup is not as great as that of Juventus, so the hosts should win this meeting at the end of regular time.
