Latest Lazio vs Porto football review
Lazio have just won 2-1 against Cagliari, maintaining their impressive form to climb to fifth place, just three points behind the top of Serie A. Marco Baroni's side are also showing impressive form in Europe with three wins in three games, leading their Europa League group with a goal difference of +8.
It is worth noting that Lazio have been very convincing and different to previous seasons, when the team often struggled in the early stages of European campaigns. They are also maintaining a 13-game unbeaten run at the Stadio Olimpico, with five consecutive wins.
Porto are also in good form, winning six straight, scoring 17 goals and not conceding in over eight hours. Despite a shaky start, losing to Sporting Lisbon and Bodo/Glimt, victory over Hoffenheim has seen them climb up the table and move to the top of their Europa League group.
However, Porto have not faced opponents in the form of Lazio at the current level, and the team has not been successful on away trips to Italy. In 12 visits to the country, Porto have won just once, against Roma in August 2016 at the Stadio Olimpico.
