Football Bet of the Day: Sky's the limit for Inter and Lazio

Inter v Lazio
Saturday 17:00 (Live on BT Sport 3)

Inglorious basterds. Perth had a Saturday morning to forget as they went down 6-0 at Sydney. It's not one we'll be taking into the new year with us either.

In fact, we're already looking ahead to this afternoon's Serie A clash between third-placed Inter and fifth-placed Lazio. Across Inter's nine home games this season, the San Siro has seen 29 goals, and we fancy there are a few more on the way today.

Luciano Spalletti's hosts are winless in three and have slipped down to third in the table. Last time out at the San Siro, they lost their unbeaten home record in a 3-1 defeat to Udinese. That was the fourth time in six home games that they'd crossed the Over 2.5 Goals line.

Under Simone Inzaghi, almost 70% of Lazio's Serie A matches have delivered Over 2.5 Goals (38/55). On the road, that figure rises to 75% (21/28), including all of the most recent 14. The Eagles' last three away games have also been to teams alongside them in the top seven. The results: 3-3, 2-1 and 1-2. We're backing Over 2.5 Goals again this afternoon.
