Our prediction for this Serie A match:
Frosinone will be aiming to put an end to their six-game winless run when they face Lazio in the Serie A round 29. The Canarini do not seem to be at their sharpest, with the team dropping to the relegation zone and, no doubt, they are desperate to grab something from Saturday’s encounter. Emanuele Valeri suffered an injury in a 1-0 loss to Sassuolo at the weekend, with Pol Lirola likely to replace him in the starting XI. All Abdou Harroui, Kevin Bonifazi, Anthony Oyono, Riccardo Marchizza, and Sergio Kalaj are out of contention with injuries for the home side.
The Biancocelesti, on the other hand, suffered a dip in form, with the team losing each of their last three league matches. Even though all Guendouzi, Marusic, and Pellegrini return from suspensions, we are tempted to place our bets on the home side. Both Patric and Nicolo Rovella remain doubtful.
Highlighted Player (Manuel Lazzari):
Born in Valdagno, Italy on November 29, 1993, Manuel Lazzari is a midfielder who plays for Serie A side SPAL. Lazzari played for the youth teams of Montecchio Maggiore at the start of his football career and in 2011 he moved to Delta Rovigo.
After spending the 2011/2012 season at the club, Manuel Lazzarri joined Giacomense in the summer of 2012 and it has to be noted that he made 24 appearances in the league for the club. At the end of the 2012/2013 season the 174-cm-tall footballer moved to SPAL and he quickly established himself as a first-team regular at the club.
Manuel Lazzari had seven assists in 39 appearances for SPAL in the 2016/2017 Serie B campaign and, no doubt, he helped the club secure promotion to the Italian elite division. His main position is right midfield, but he can play as both right-back and right winger if needed. Manuel Lazzari’s contract with SPAL should expire on June 30, 2021.
Highlighted Team (Frosinone):
Back in 1912 Frosinone were founded as Unione Sportiva Frusinate and it has to be noted that the colors of the team were originally red and blue. They were later changed to the current yellow and blue and the Canarini have been wearing those kits ever since. Frosinone made their first ever appearance in the Serie A in the 2015/2016 season, but they failed to secure the promotion.
The Canarini finished the season in 19th place in the standings, eight points behind Udinese, who eventually avoided relegation to Serie B. However, two years later Frosinone returned to the Italian top flight as they defeated Palermo 3-2 on aggregate in the play-offs final.
The club play their home games at Stadio Benito Stirpe, the stadium that was opened in 2017. The venue can hold 16,227 spectators and it is owned by the Municipality of Frosinone. The construction cost €20 million.
