Juventus vs. Lazio: not one to miss

A big matchday 24 clash at the Allianz Stadium as Juve take on Sarri’s Lazio.

Juventus vs. Lazio closes out Sunday’s fixtures on matchday 24 in Serie A. Spalletti’s side, fresh from a 4-0 win over Parma, will be looking to consolidate fourth spot and put pressure on the teams above them. Lazio, having returned to winning ways against Genoa last week, will be aiming for back-to-back wins to keep their European hopes alive.
