Match Analysis

In their recent outings, Lazio has shown a mixed bag of results. They suffered a defeat against Napoli at home, managed a draw against Udinese away, and played a goalless draw against Cremonese at home. Their recent form indicates a struggle to find the back of the net, with just one goal scored in their last three games. On the defensive end, they have displayed resilience, evidenced by two clean sheets in their last five matches. Advanced metrics show Lazio’s average goals scored stands at 1.0 with an expected goals figure of 0.832, indicating a slight underperformance in attacking efficiency. Fiorentina, on the other hand, comes into this fixture with a slightly better run, having secured two victories in their last three games. They defeated Cremonese and Udinese, both at home, while suffering a narrow loss to Parma away. Despite scoring fewer goals on average (0.6 per game), their expected goals average is higher at 1.31, suggesting potential for improvement in converting chances. However, their defense remains a concern, with an average of 2.2 goals conceded per game, coupled with only one clean sheet in their last five matches.

Final Prediction

Fiorentina's recent wins give them the edge against a Lazio side struggling to score. Their ability to create chances, as reflected in their expected goals, will be crucial. Keep an eye on Fiorentina's defense, which needs to tighten up to capitalize on their attacking opportunities and secure a much-needed win to climb out of the relegation zone.
