"Starting with the hosts, while Pisa might have sprung an almighty upset over the weekend as they snatched a 1-1 stalemate away at title contenders AC Milan, it is no secret that Alberto Gilardino's men are pencilled in as a standout relegation contender this season. Despite only making their famous top-flight return this year, the have put just four points on the board from any of their first eight Serie A appearances and they are still waiting to claim a maiden top-flight win."
"As for the visitors, collecting what was a heavyweight scalp over the weekend as they secured a 1-0 victory against historic rivals Juventus, Lazio will be desperate to use that performance as a platform to build on. Despite signing off September with a stellar 3-0 romp away at Genoa, Maurizio Sarri's men have struggled to find any kind of stability since opening up the new campaign. In fact, continuing on from last season, the former Chelsea boss has not seen his squad register consecutive Serie"
Verdict: Both teams to score. Best odds 4/5 with bookmaker Luckster. Pisa have one point from eight Serie A matches and await a first top-flight win since promotion, scoring none in their first four home showdowns in Tuscany. Pisa lost 4-0 to Bologna and drew 1-1 at AC Milan. Mateus Lusuardi and Calvin Stengs are sidelined; Juan Cuadrado could return to the starting XI and veteran Raul Albiol will start. Lazio beat Juventus 1-0 and beat Genoa 3-0 in September but remain inconsistent under Maurizio Sarri, who has not registered consecutive Serie A wins.
