Lazio and Fiorentina will lock horns with each other in Serie A next week. The match between Maurizio Sarri’s side and Vincenzo Italiano’s team will be held at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome and is scheduled to kick off at 7:45 pm UK time next Monday.

Lazio

Lazio are a big club in Italy and have been successful in the past. They have won Serie A in the past and have also played in European competitions. They are playing in the UEFA Champions League this season after finishing in the top four of the Serie A table last campaign.

Maurizio Sarri’s side are not doing particularly well at the moment. Lazio were expected to push for the Scudetto this campaign, but they could end up challenging for ‘only’ the Serie A top four. The Roman side are ninth in the Serie A table at the moment with 13 points from nine matches, four points behind defending champions Napoli in fourth.

Lazio are second in UEFA Champions League Group E at the moment with four points from two matches, level on points with leaders and Spanish club Atletico Madrid. Maurizio Sarri’s side got the better of Sassuolo 2-0 away from home in Serie A last weekend. It followed a 3-2 victory over Atalanta at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome in Serie A.

Team News:

Lazio are likely to start in a 4-3-3 formation. Ivan Provedel will be in goal for the Roman club. Manuel Lazzari, Patric, Alessio Romagnoli and Adam Marusic will be the four defenders. Matteo Guendouzi, Nicolo Rovella and Luis Alberto will be the three midfielders and will have Felipe Anderson, Valentin Castellanos and Pedro in attack.

Fiorentina

Fiorentina are doing extremely well at the moment. Not many would have expected the Florence club to challenge for the top four in the Serie A table this season, but they are doing just that.

Vincenzo Italiano’s side are fifth in the Serie A table at the moment with 17 points from nine matches. Fiorentina are level on points with fourth-placed and defending champions Napoli and are a point clear of Atalanta in sixth.

Fiorentina will be in UEFA Europa Conference League action this week when they take on FK Cukaricki at home. The Italian club lost Empoli 2-0 at home in Serie A on Monday evening. It followed a 3-1 victory over Napoli in Serie A in the league.

Team News:

Fiorentina are likely to line up in a 4-2-3-1 formation. Pietro Terracciona will be in goal for the home team. Michael Kayode, Luas Martinez Quarta, Nikola Milenkovic and Fabiano Parisi will be the four defenders. Arthur and Alfred Duncan will be the two defensive midfielders. Nicolas Gonzalez, Giacomo Bonaventura and Josip Brekalo will be the three attacking midfielders and will have M’Bala Nzola in front of them in attack.

Key Factors to Consider

  • Lazio have scored 12 goals in 9 Serie A matches.
  • Fiorentina have scored 18 goals in 9 Serie A matches.
  • Lazio have conceded 12 goals in 9 Serie A games.
  • Fiorentina have conceded 13 goals in 9 Serie A games.
  • Nicolas Gonzalez has scored 5 goals in 8 Serie A matches for Fiorentina this season.

Conclusion

Both Lazio and Fiorentina are aiming to finish in the top four of the Serie A table this season. The two teams will be determined to pick up all three points from the match in Rome next week. It is very likely that the game will end in a draw.
