Lazio vs Udinese, Italy – Serie A, Stadio Olimpico, 20:45

Late-goal specialists Lazio will aim to stay on the tails of Serie A’s top four when they meet mid-table Udinese on Monday evening.

The Rome club has twice won with 98th-minute strikes in the past week, while their in-form visitors have claimed 13 points from the last 15 available.

Four days after Pedro’s last-gasp penalty sent top-four rivals AC Milan to a 2-1 defeat at San Siro, Lazio repeated the trick in their Europa League last-16 tie versus Viktoria Plzen, despite going down to nine men.

Locked in a battle with Bologna, Juventus, Fiorentina, and perhaps even arch-rivals Roma to claim Champions League qualification via a top-four domestic finish, they can also consider taking the Europa League route into UEFA’s elite competition.

However, Marco Baroni’s men must first try to re-find top form on home turf: they have won only one of their last six league games at Stadio Olimpico – against rock-bottom Monza – after dropping just two points throughout the first seven.

In recent years, Udinese’s once dismal record versus Lazio has distinctly improved, with three wins apiece and four draws across the teams’ last 10 league meetings.

In fine form and posing a real threat up front, Udinese will not be beaten easily by a Lazio side with one eye on Europe.

Yet the hosts have scored more goals in the last 15 minutes of play than any Serie A team this season—at least 18—so another late winner cannot be counted out.
