Fiorentina vs Lazio Prediction: We won't predict a must-win for Fiorentina

Prediction for the Serie A Fiorentina vs Lazio match which will take place on February 26th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Vincenzo Italiano's team has fallen out of the race for the top four in the national championship after prioritizing other tournaments - the Conference League and the Italian Cup - at a certain point in the season. Fiorentina is in eighth place, 10 points behind the top four.

Fiorentina played the Tuscan derby away to Empoli in the previous round and drew 1:1. Thus, in the last five matches of the championship, the Florentines had only one win and three defeats.

Also note that the other day, Fiorentina learned its opponent in round 16 of the Conference League. It was Maccabi from Haifa. The first match of the confrontation is scheduled for March 7.

The Romans played their last game last Thursday. In the postponed match of matchday 21, Maurizio Sarri's team broke the resistance of tough Torino on the road. 2:0 - Guendouzi and Cataldi scored in the second half. It was an excellent victory but did not significantly improve Lazio's position in the standings. The Biancocelesti are eighth, eight points behind the top four.

But in the current draw of the UEFA Champions League, Lazio is already in the playoffs. Recall that in the first match of the last 16, Lazio defeated Bayern on his field - 1:0. The return meeting will be held in Munich on March 5.

Lazio has a hard time with games two days into the third or three days into the fourth, like this time. In this respect, Fiorentina has an excellent chance of winning. We won't predict a must-win for Fiorentina, but we will bet on Vincenzo Italiano's team to pick up points. Through TU, consider the problems with goal-scoring chances that both teams have to a greater or lesser extent this season.
