Lazio and Pescara having the same 4 points each ahead of the Serie A Week 4 game on Saturday 17 September 2016 at the Olimpico di Roma Stadium in Rome, Italy at 18:00. Let’s put it this way. Pressure is more for Lazio playing the home game. Pescara who are newly promoted from Serie B this season will attempt to upset Lazio and even a draw might be OK, but not for Lazio on their quest to reach to the top 5 positions.
- There are 10 precedents between Lazio and Pescara. Stats showing Lazio with 6 wins, 2 draaws, and Pescara with 2 wins. Pescara has never beaten Lazio at the Olimpico di Roma Stadium but ending only with a 2-2 draw back in 1988. Lazio scoring 16 goals and Pescara 9 goals.
