SS Lazio vs FC Viktoria Plzen Prediction 13 March 2025
Added on 11 March, 2025
The return leg of the Europa League Round of 16 between Lazio and Viktoria Plzen will take place on Thursday evening in Rome.
Lazio secured first place in the group stage, reinforcing their status as one of the tournament’s main contenders. In Serie A, they remain firmly in the race for a top-four finish, currently sitting in fifth place following a 1-1 draw with Udinese.
Viktoria Plzen, meanwhile, hold third place in the Czech league, which appears to be their ceiling for now. Their most recent domestic outing ended in a goalless draw against Pardubice, but their European campaign saw them pull off an impressive comeback against Ferencvaros, overturning a 0-1 first-leg loss with a convincing 3-0 home victory.
Lazio’s 2-1 win in the Czech Republic puts them in a favorable position for the return leg. Given Plzen’s tendency to struggle away from home, Lazio have a strong chance to capitalize on their advantage and secure a win in front of their home crowd.
