Lazio Preview
Lazio secured their place in the European places last weekend when it defeated Milan. This Sunday, though, the team could climb to second place in the standings with a win and a defeat of the Rossoneri.
The team coached by Maurizio Sarri has not lost in three games and it has not conceded a goal in the last two matches. This is a very opportune performance to maintain the fierce fight for the first places in the standings, since there is only a three-point difference between sixth and second place.
Of course, the loss of Ciro Immobile has been painful for the team, but it has somehow managed to keep its position as the fourth-highest scoring team in the championship with 35 goals, and second with the fewest goals conceded. The team is equal with Juventus, having allowed only 15 goals.
Lazio has also responded well at home, with 20 points in 10 games prior to this game. The team also scored 20 goals, conceded just 9 and have not lost at the Stadio Olimpico for the last three matchdays.
Probable lineup (4-3-3): Ivan Provedel; Elseid Hysaj, Nicolo Casale, Alessio Romagnoli, Adam Marusic; Sergej Milinkovic-Savic, Danilo Cataldi, Luis Alberto; Felipe Anderson, Pedro, Mattia Zaccagni.
Fiorentina Preview
After taking four points from its first two games after the World Cup break, Fiorentina has suffered two painful defeats that have pushed the team out of the European places.
Fiore is currently in 12th place in the standings, a spot it shares with Juventus, 23 points and five behind Udinese for the Conference League berth.
The main problem for Vincenzo Italiano’s side is their lack of goal-scoring ability, which is a cause for concern given Lazio’s defensive prowess. In this category,Fiorentina has the eighth lowest odds in the championship, with 21 goals scored. In the last two matchdays the team has not scored a goal .
As for its performance as away from home, the Viola team has not won for two matches and, their offensive problems do not stop there, as the team has scored only seven goals in that condition.
Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Pietro Terracciano; Lorenzo Venuti, Nikola Milenkovic, Igor, Cristiano Biraghi; Sofyan Amrabat, Alfred Duncan; Nanitamo Ikoné, Giacomo Bonaventura, Cristian Kouame; Luka Jovic.
JefeBet Prediction
This campaign, these teams have already met on matchday 9, and the match ended in a 4-0 away win for Lazio.
It’s likely that such a result won’t be repeated this Sunday, but we will see another victory for a Roman team that is going through a great moment and that will control one of the worst attacks in Serie A with its good defense.
In addition, Fiorentina has not won in seven official games at the Olimpico Fiorentina, with six defeats and only one draw.
Prediction: Lazio to win (LAZ 2 – FIO 0).
