Venezia vs Lazio Prediction & Betting Tips (19 September)

As of 15 September 2026, Venezia vs Lazio is set for Saturday 19 September 2026 at the Stadio Pierluigi Penzo in Venice, with Serie A 2026/2027 kick-off listed at 20:45 CEST. The latest team news points to two different emotional states: Lazio remain unbeaten under Gennaro Gattuso but saw their perfect start checked in a 2-0 lead that became a 2-2 draw against AC Milan, while Venezia are still searching for a first point after a chaotic defeat to Fiorentina.

Form reads harshly for the home side: Venezia were beaten 2-4 by Fiorentina after also losing 3-2 at Frosinone and 2-0 at AC Milan, whereas Lazio’s most recent benchmark is the 2-2 home draw with Milan.

Lazio’s 2026/2027 group is built around Mattia Zaccagni, Nicolo Rovella and Kenneth Taylor, with Matteo Cancellieri, Tijjani Noslin, Gustav Isaksen, Albert Gudmundsson and Andrea Pinamonti offering forward depth; Josip Sutalo started against Milan after Danilho Doekhi’s hand injury, so Gattuso may again balance aggression with a high defensive line.

Lazio are not flawless away from Rome, yet their pressing, wide speed and bench options should create the decisive gap late on. Our prediction is Venezia 1 : 2 Lazio, a result that also fits the correct-score market around 9.00 and keeps Lazio firmly in the early European r
