Prediction: 1-1
Lazio
Fiorentina and Lazio go head to head at Stadio Artemio Franchi in the closing match of the Serie A round 26. The Viola are eager to climb to the Conference League berth and we are positive that they will fight tooth and nail against the Biancocelesti. Brazil midfielder Arthur Melo is pushing for a recall to the starting XI, while both Oliver Christensen and Gaetano Castrovilli are out of contention with injuries.
The capital club, on the other hand, are only one point behind Fiorentina ahead of Monday’s showdown. Both teams appear evenly matched currently, leading us to predict a deadlock where they share the spoils in the upcoming round 26 clash. Maurizio Sarri should have a full squad to choose from this time out. It has to be noted that there have been under 2.5 goals in four of their last six meetings in the Italian top flight.
