Lazio vs Viktoria Plzen Tips & Preview - Italians to complete the double over Czech visitors
- Lazio won the first leg against Viktoria Plzen 2-1 with a last-minute goal.
- Lazio are unbeaten in eight of their last nine Europa League matches.
- Viktoria Plzen are winless in three of their last four Europa League games.

Lazio vs Viktoria Plzen
Having claimed the advantage in the Czech Republic, Lazio return to the Stadio Olimpico for their Europa League round of 16 second leg against Viktoria Plzen.
The Italians were the team to beat during the league phase and have maintained that form in the knockout stage. They often do well at home and should have too much quality for the visitors, who tend to struggle on their travels in Europe.
Lazio Form
Lazio showed their experience and quality in the first leg, claiming a 2-1 victory in Plzen. They finished the game with nine men following red cards to Nicolo Rovella and Samuel Gigot but an injury time winner from Gustav Isaksen secured the win.
The Italians remain the team to beat in the Europa League and are unbeaten in eight of their last nine matches in the competition, claiming seven wins in that run. Marco Baroni’s team have scored in both halves in three of their last four Europa League matches, although they have also conceded in those three fixtures, all of which have produced over 2.5 goals.
Away from the Europa League, Lazio are unbeaten in seven of their last eight matches across all competitions, playing out a 1-1 draw with Udinese on Monday night. They are also unbeaten in six of their last seven home matches across all competitions, with a 5-1 victory over Monza among their results in that run.
Viktoria Plzen Form
Viktoria Plzen will be disappointed not to have taken advantage of their extra man in the first leg having played the final 13 minutes against 10 men. They fought back from an early setback to level through Rafiu Durosinmi but went on to concede a late winner.
That result is part of a poor run for Plzen, who are winless in three of their last four Europa League matches. Miroslav Koubek's men have scored in eight of their last nine matches in the competition, while seven of those fixtures have produced over 2.5 goals.
Viktoria Plzen are also winless in three of their last five matches in all competitions and were held to a 0-0 Czech Liga draw with Pardubice last Sunday. However, they will head to Italy unbeaten in their last three away matches across all competitions.
Head to Head
Lazio’s 2-1 win was the first ever meeting between both teams.
Verdict
Having already won in the Czech Republic, Lazio will be feeling confident returning home on Thursday, having also been victorious in seven of their last nine Europa League matches. It was a win and over 2.5 goals in the first leg and a repeat is expected here.
Lazio have scored in both halves in three of their last four matches in Europe but tend to concede and that trend is expected to continue.
