Italian Serie A picks for Atalanta vs. Lazio
Before tuning into Saturday's match, you need to see the Atalanta vs. Lazio picks from European soccer insider Martin Green. After working in the sports betting industry for several years, Green became a professional sports writer and handicapper and has covered the game worldwide. Since then, his European soccer picks have been spot-on. Green has generated over $37,000 for $100 bettors since the 2017-18 season, and he has his finger on the pulse of the game all over the globe.
For Atalanta vs. Lazio, Green is backing Atalanta to win on the 90-minute money line at +120 odds. Although Immobile has been on fire for Lazio, his club's defensive miscues have proven costly in recent matches. Against Empoli on January 6, Lazio's back line allowed two goals in the first 10 minutes of action, the first coming on a penalty in the sixth minute from Empoli's Nedim Barjami. Immobile missed a penalty of his own in the game that could have been the difference in the 3-3 draw.
Lazio lost its next match, 2-1 to first place Inter Milan, but has taken clean sheet victories in its last two games against lower-tier clubs Salernitana and Udinese. The latter was a 1-0 extra time win in the Round of 16 of the Italy Cup on January 18. Atalanta held Inter to a scoreless draw in its last match, and La Dea center back Jose Luis Palomino has been one of Serie A's best defenders. He is second in the league in tackles won, with 40 on the season.
"[Lazio] signed off 2021 with back-to-back 3-1 wins against Genoa and Venezia. It returned to action this month with a pulsating 3-3 draw against Empoli, which perfectly encapsulated their attacking brilliance and defensive ineptitude," Green told SportsLine. "Lazio also has the seventh worst defensive record in Serie A. It has conceded 39 times in 22 games, whereas Atalanta has only conceded 26 goals in 21 matches."
