Match Stats

New Lazio manager Marco Baroni, who started his tenure with a win against promoted Venezia, hoped to continue his success with another victory over Udinese. However, Lazio fell behind early and conceded a second goal after the break. Even with Udinese down to 10 men, Lazio could only manage a late consolation from Gustav Isaksen, resulting in a disappointing defeat and ending an eight-match unbeaten streak.

Now facing Milan, Lazio looks to break a three-game Serie A losing streak to the Rossoneri, including a 1-0 loss six months ago. Milan has won five of the last six encounters with Lazio, but they haven’t secured back-to-back away wins against them since 2009.

AC Milan, under new head coach Paulo Fonseca, has struggled so far. After a 2-2 draw with Torino in their opening matchday, they suffered a defeat to newly-promoted Parma despite a late equalizer from Christian Pulisic. The loss marks Milan's first winless start to a season since 2011, raising concerns about their defensive stability despite leading Serie A in several attacking metrics. If they lose again this weekend, it would mark their worst start to a season this century.
