Lazio vs Parma prediction: the Biancocelesti welcome Parma to the Stadio Olimpico on Saturday evening with Gennaro Gattuso’s record-breaking side able to go top of Serie A, at least overnight. Lazio sit second on 19 points from seven matches (6W-1D), unbeaten and fresh from a stunning 3-0 demolition of Juventus in Turin that underlined their title credentials.
This Lazio vs Parma prediction pits the division’s meanest defence against one of its bluntest attacks. Lazio have conceded just four goals all season, while Parma have scored only once in their last four league games and sit second-bottom on four points, winless under new coach Alberto Gilardino after 3-0 defeats in each of his first two games. The Olimpico has been a fortress in this fixture — Parma have not won a league game in Rome in ten visits — although the hosts may have to do it in front of a near-empty stadium amid the ongoing fan boycott. Kickoff is at 19:45 WAT (20:45 local time, with Italy still on daylight saving).

Team News Lazio
Lazio will be without Albert Gudmundsson, who is sidelined with a dislocated shoulder. Adam Marusic and Nicolo Rovella are both doubts — each is close to a return but may not be risked by Gattuso. There is better news in attack, with Matteo Cancellieri back in action this week and pushing for a start, possibly ahead of Gustav Isaksen.
Team News Parma
Parma are without Hans Nicolussi Caviglia and Nesta Elphege. Pontus Almqvist is a major doubt, while Abdoulaye Ndiaye has returned to fitness — he was fit enough for the bench against Torino and could start here.
Lazio possible XI (4-3-3, per Sports Mole, 22 Oct): Mandas; Floriani Mussolini, Sutalo, Provstgaard, Tavares; Frattesi, Belahyane, Taylor; Isaksen, Noslin, Zaccagni. Note: Cancellieri may start ahead of Isaksen.
Parma possible XI (3-5-2, per Sports Mole, 22 Oct): Corvi; Delprato, Diego Carlos, Troilo; Britschgi, Bernabe, Keita, Fabbian, Valeri; Lontani, Romero. Note: ratingbet differs substantially on Parma’s XI.
Lazio vs Parma Betting Tips
Our Lazio vs Parma prediction for the three featured markets:
Tip 1 — Result: Lazio win. The hosts have won six of seven and sit second; Parma are second-bottom, winless under Gilardino and beaten 3-0 in each of his first two games.
Tip 2 — Over-Under 2.5: Under 2.5 goals. Lazio have conceded four all season and Parma have scored once in four league games — expect a controlled, low-scoring home win.
Tip 3 — BTTS Yes-No: No. With Lazio’s mean defence and Parma’s blunt attack, both teams scoring looks unlikely.
