Milan unbeaten away this season

AC Milan remain the only team in Serie A yet to lose an away match this season.

The Rossoneri have won nine and drawn five of their 14 league away games. Their strong run includes avoiding defeat against Juventus, Atalanta and Roma.

Last week Milan also defeated Inter 1-0 in the derby.

Lazio struggling for consistency

Lazio have struggled in recent months.

They have won just three of their last 13 Serie A matches. Their recent 2-1 victory against Sassuolo came only after a late mistake by the opposition goalkeeper.

Head-to-head record

The last five meetings between these teams have been balanced:

Lazio – 2 wins
Milan – 2 wins
Draws – 1

Referee factor

Marco Guida will officiate the match.

The Italian referee has previously faced criticism for controversial decisions in games involving these teams, increasing the likelihood of VAR involvement.

Prediction

Given the intensity of the fixture and the referee factor, controversial moments are possible.
