Alberto Gilardino's side managed to secure a point in their away encounter with AC Milan (2:2) in the previous round. However, Pisa remains winless in the current championship (4 draws, 4 losses). Additionally, the club has conceded at least two goals for the third time in this Serie A season. In the standings, Pisa sits in second-to-last place with four points.

Maurizio Sarri's team managed to defeat Juventus at home (1:0) in the last round. Thus, Lazio secured only their third victory in the last 11 Serie A matches (4 draws, 4 losses). Furthermore, the team kept a clean sheet in two consecutive league games for the first time since 2025. Lazio has 11 points, placing them 10th in the standings.

Pisa vs. Lazio: Match Prediction
Despite Alberto Gilardino's side managing to secure a draw in Milan last round, I do not believe Pisa will perform as strongly in two consecutive matches. Especially since the team has yet to win in the current championship, even against opponents of varying levels, including Verona and Fiorentina, who are in the bottom four of the standings. Additionally, the club has shown a weak attacking presence: Pisa failed to score in 5 of their last 7 Serie A matches.
Lazio is regaining form after a poor start to the current championship and has not lost in their last four Serie A encounters (2 wins, 2 draws). Moreover, in three of these matches, the Romans managed to keep a clean sheet. I would also highlight their strong away record: Lazio has suffered only three defeats in their last 13 away league matches (7 wins, 3 draws).
My prediction: Lazio with a handicap (0)
* Each team's starting lineup is based on their previous match in this tournament.
