Lazio take on the visitors Fiorentina in the round 10 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Monday, October 30th at Stadio Olimpico (Rome).
Lazio played under the guidance of their former striker, Inzaghi, for a long time. However, in 2021, Simone moved to Inter. They had to make a quick change, and they somewhat reluctantly placed their bet on Maurizio Sarri since he was one of the few top coaches available at that time. The Smoker proved that this decision was not to be regretted. He immediately ensured progress for his team, and last season, they even became the vice-champion. However, after the summer break, possibly due to the departure of their key midfielder Milinković-Savić, the capital's grand club had a poor start. They suffered three losses in the first four rounds, not only to Juventus but also to Lecce and Genoa. Then, they started to improve, and in October, they won against both Atalanta and Sassuolo. They demonstrated strong determination in the Champions League, earning a draw against Atletico with a goal from their goalkeeper, Provedel, and Pedro secured an away win against Celtic with a 90+ minute goal. However, their match against Feyenoord in Rotterdam ended in a 1-3 defeat.

Fiorentina are performing well this season. The Violets changed their coach around the same time as Lazio. However, they willingly brought in Vincenzo Italiano, hoping for progress. Italiano, despite not having competed for major achievements before, didn't disappoint. In his very first year, they finished in the 7th position in Serie A, even after selling the prolific Vlahović in the winter transfer window. This allowed the Viola squad to start in the UEFA Europa Conference League, where they began in the summer qualifiers and reached the final, ultimately losing to West Ham. Around the same time, they also lost to Inter in the decisive match of the Italian Cup and finished only in the 8th place in Serie A. However, the fate decided to reward the Purple Ones when UEFA banned Juventus, allowing them to play in Europe once more. In the UEFA Europa Conference League, things haven't been going perfectly, they narrowly overcame Vienna's Rapid (2-0 at home after a 0-1 in Austria), and they started the group stage with draws against Genk and Ferencváros, both ending 2-2. In Serie A, they didn't get off to a great start either. After three rounds, they had four points, including a 0-4 loss to Inter. But then, they won against everyone in succession, except for a draw against Frosinone. However, unexpectedly, they lost to Empoli and were defeated 0-2 at their home ground. After that, they crushed Čukarički in European competition.
Recently, Lazio had the upper hand and won three times in a row in the 2021-2022 season. But in January, Fiorentina held them to a 1-1 draw in Rome. Both teams will be fighting for success, and this match is expected to be quite spectacular. We are betting on total over 2.5 goals.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 scored goals.
