Fiorentina vs Lazio

, KO: 11:30 Sep 22, 2024, Stadio Artemio Franchi
Lazio

Fiorentina welcome Lazio to the Stadio Artemio Franchi as they seek their first win of the season. Lazio have been decent so far and given their fine record in Florence, they should have the upper hand on Sunday.

Things have been a bit rough for Fiorentina this season as they are still without a win after four matches. Raffaelle Palladino's men have been beaten just once while the other three fixtures have ended in draws.

The sad news for Fiorentina is that the defeat came in their previous fixture as they were beaten 3-2 by Atalanta. They came from behind to lead through Lucas Martinez Quarta and Moise Kean but failed to hold on for the win.

Lazio have also lost just once this season but have fared much better than their hosts so far. They have claimed two wins and a draw from their four matches, with Valentin Castellanos looking particularly impressive.

Castellanos was on target last time out as Lazio claimed a 2-1 victory over Verona. Boulaye Dia had opened the scoring for Marco Baroni’s men, who were able to hold on for the win despite the visitors getting a goal.

How the bookies view it: Bookies backing Fiorentina

Fiorentina have the edge among the bookies and are priced at 11/8 by Betfred to claim the win. A victory for Lazio is valued at 21/10 by Betfred, who is also offering odds of 11/5 for a draw.

Head to head: Match-up favours Lazio

Lazio have a 36-14 advantage with 12 draws from 62 previous matches against Fiorentina. The capital club have won two of the last three meetings at the Stadio Artemio Franchi, although they were beaten 2-1 on their most recent visit back in February.

Players to watch: Castellanos looks lethal

Castellanos has caught the eye for Lazio in the early stages of the season, scoring three goals in four matches so far. The Argentine striker is priced at 9/4 by Betfred to maintain his scoring run.

Moise Kean has settled quickly at Fiorentina and has found the net in two of the four Serie A matches. The striker could be worth keeping an eye on to score anytime at 9/4 with Betfred.

Probable line-ups

Fiorentina are likely to make changes to their team with Jonathan Ikone and Michael Kayode pushing to start. Kean should continue in attack while Luca Ranieri is set to feature in the heart of the defence.

Lazio also have a fully fit squad and could stick with the team that beat Verona last time out Castellanos should lead the line once again with Mattia Zaccagni and Dia providing support while Alessio Romagnoli should continue at the back.

Fiorentina: De Gea, Biraghi, Ranieri, Martinez Quarta, Gosens, Mandragora, Kayode, Dodo, Ikone, Bove, Kean
Lazio: Provedel, Tavares, Romagnoli, Gila, Lazzari, Guendouzi, Rovella, Isaksen, Dia, Zaccagni, Castellanos

Anything else catch the eye?

Both teams were on target in the last meeting and a repeat is priced at 4/5 by Betfred. That fixture also produced over 2.5 goals, which is valued at 11/10 by Betfred, who is also offering 11/4 for over 3.5 goals.

Lazio have opened the scoring in the last six meetings with Fiorentina and can be backed to grab the first goal on Sunday at 11/8 with Betfred.
