Game Totals Prediction

Lazio is trying to improve, consistently picking up points and closing in on the table leaders. Napoli are far more convincing, and only thanks to their home games; they've been lackluster on the road. Considering the teams' performance this season, plus their head-to-head record in recent years, I think the Romans won't be left without points: Lazio will not lose – Handicap 2(0) – 2.27.
