For SS Lazio, the Coppa Italia has become a real opportunity: the path to the final is short, as they need to get past only three opponents. They have already eliminated AC Milan and Bologna, scoring once in each match and winning one penalty shoot-out.
SS Lazio
The hosts are not in the best form going into the second leg against Atalanta. They have not won any of their last five matches in all competitions. Over this run, they have conceded at least twice in three matches, including against Atalanta in the Serie A (0:2). At home, the hosts also have little to be proud of, with only one win over Genoa (3:2) in their last seven home matches. The head-to-head record against Atalanta is similar, with just one win in the last seven meetings.
Atalanta
The visitors are in excellent form and are encouraged by recent success in the Coppa Italia and the UEFA Champions League. At home, they eliminated Genoa (4:0) and Juventus (3:0), and in the league they already beat Lazio by a 2:0 scoreline. Over their last eight matches in all competitions, they have won five and scored at least twice in each of them.
SS Lazio vs Atalanta Prediction
The visitors are currently in much better form and are unlikely to allow the hosts many opportunities. Lazio will try to score, but the visitors should be able to overcome them in the upcoming match.
