[Tips]:
The two teams just faced each other in the league last weekend, with AC Milan defeating SS Lazio 1-0. However, the match was marred by a highly controversial officiating decision, leaving the Biancocelesti feeling aggrieved by the loss. As they meet again in the midweek cup tie, SS Lazio will undoubtedly be eager to prove themselves.

As the current Serie A leaders, AC Milan are in solid form. However, it is still quite challenging to defeat opponents like SS Lazio twice in a row under the intensity of playing two games within a week.

So SS Lazio are expected to win this game in AH.

SS Lazio (+0/0.5)
