Serie A: Lazio vs Atalanta 14/02/2026

Betting on Handicap

Lazio are having a relatively colorless season, confirming the initial estimates that predicted they would at best fight for a European ticket. Their course so far has not had significant ups and downs in the standings but at this specific moment, they seem to be building positive momentum.

They won at home against Genoa, drew 2-2 in Turin against Juventus, while midweek they advanced to the Cup semifinals (where they will face Atalanta) eliminating Bologna on penalties away from home. They are not a team you can fully trust, but at home they do not lose easily and at underdog odds it makes sense to back them.

With nine years on their bench, Gasperini left his mark on Atalanta, who after his departure are searching for a new playing identity. They started the season with Juric and after the heavy home defeat to Sassuolo, Palladino took over.
Since then the team has shown a better image on the pitch and without playing the attractive football we were used to, they have significantly improved their efficiency.

The two opponents do not have major differences in quality. Atalanta are the better team overall, but at this moment they do not look like the favorite of the match. The serious injury of key player De Ketelaere was added to that of main striker Scamacca who is unlikely to start and this will cost them in attacking function.

On Tuesday they have their first away Champions League match against Dortmund and before such a big game, a team rarely reaches its competitive ceiling. The Asian handicap +0.25 for the hosts is offered at odds close to doubling and leaves us with profit even in case of a draw.
