[banner][/banner]     Third-placed Lazio, fresh from beating AC Milan 4-0, will be looking to continue their upward trend in Serie A as they look to leapfrog the inconsistent AC Milan to second on the table. Mid-table-placed Fiorentina will be looking to turn their form around after losing their last two consecutive clashes in the league. 

Key Highlights

Lazio's Positive Form

Maurizio Sarri’s men are in a good vein of form in Serie A in the post-World Cup re-start. They have won their last three outings in the league, scoring 7 goals and keeping three clean sheets in the process. They have not lost since the 2-1 reverse at Lecce. This means they have collected 10 points from the available 15 in their last 5 assignments in Serie A. This run has seen Sarri’s men climb the table to 3rd, a point behind second-placed Milan and 13 points behind the in-form league leaders Napoli. Sarri will look to continue his side’s brilliant form when they host Fiorentina on Sunday. 

Fiorentina’s Inconsistency

Fiorentina’s form has lacked consistency this season to challenge for European places. They have won 6 times, drawn 5, and lost 8 matches out of their 19 fixtures so far in Serie A.  In the last five outings, Vincenzo Italiano and his charges won just once, drew once, and lost three times. They have collected four points and dropped 11. As a result, they are currently 11th on the table with 23 points, 11 points from the drop zone. Vincenzo Italiano will be looking to revive his side's form as they hope to improve on their mid-table form this season. 

Injury Report

Lazio

Maurizio Sarri will not count on center-back Mario Gila in the clash against Fiorentina. The 22-year-old is nursing a foot injury he picked up on January 2nd, which has kept him out of the last 5 outings. Lazio will also be without center-forward Ciro Immobile. The experienced Italian international has been recovering from a hamstring injury since January 15th. The 32-year-old is expected to be back fit in the first week of February. Maurizio Sarri will also have to do without right winger Luka Romero, suspended until February 20th, 2023. 

Fiorentina

Vincenzo Italiano has a few absences that will impact his choice ahead of their travel to the Stadio Olimpico. Left winger Riccardo Sottil is out with a herniated disc. The 23-year-old is a long-term case, having missed 19 matches already. [banner][/banner]     Center-forward Arthur Cabral (unknown injury), center-back Lucas Martínez Quarta (patella tendon luxation), and central midfielder Gaetano Castrovilli (disrupted calf muscle) are all missing from action for Fiorentina.

Possible Lineups

Lazio

I. Provedel; A. Marusic, N. Casale, A. Ramagnoli, E. Hysaj; S. Milinkovic-Savic, D. Cataldi, L. Alberto; Pedro, F. Anderson, M. Zaccagni

Fiorentina

P. Terracciano; L. Venuti, N. Milenkovic, Igor, C. Biraghi; S. Amrabat, A. Duncan; J. Ikone, G. Bonaventura, R. Saponara; C. Kouame

Prediction

Maurizio Sarri will look to press his side's advantage at home against Fiorentina on Sunday. They will want to follow the impressive 4-0 demolition of defending champions AC Milan with a win and make a case for their top-four credentials. Sarri’s men will look to dominate the ball and the match's tempo through their incessant pressing and comfortable possession football.  Fiorentina will be looking to arrest their bad run of form. The focus will be on solidity and compactness in their approach. They will minimize the spaces that Lazio’s wide players can exploit, and they will look to attack with speed on the break. Lazio will have too much for Fiorentina, and they will win the match and continue with their fine run of form. Make sure to bet on Lazio vs Fiorentina with 22Bet!"

The round of 64 in the French Cup takes place this weekend in France, and one of the front-runners for the competition will be on the road on Friday. PSG will be looking to bounce back to winning ways after losing their previous game, but Chateauroux are unlikely to go down without a fight against the French champions.

French Cup Preview

PSG will be back in action on Friday evening, as they look to regain the French Cup. The Parisians last won this competition in the 2020-21 season, as they landed their 14th honour. However, they will certainly have questions to answer this weekend, as they were beaten for the first time domestically in their previous fixture.

PSG was beaten 3-1 away from home against Lens on New Year’s Day, which saw their unbeaten record in France come to an end. Their lead at the top of the Ligue 1 standings remains a healthy one, but a second straight defeat could lead to questions surrounding the manager. But, the Parisians have been dominant throughout recent history at this stage of the competition.

This will be a big moment in the history of Chateauroux, as they welcome PSG to town for the French Cup tie. They currently sit 14th in National, after winning just four of their 16 games this term. Their form over their previous five games has been sketchy to say the least, as they haven’t won over that period.

However, they came through the previous round in excellent fashion, as they beat Lege-Cap-Ferret 4-1 away from home. Florian Bianchini, Ferris N’Goma, and Celal Bozkurt were among the scorers in that win. Their best-ever showing in the competition came in 2003-04, as they were beaten in the final by PSG.

Chateauroux vs PSG Head to Head

The only previous competitive meeting between the sides came in the 2004 French Cup final. On that occasion, PSG claimed victory following Pedro Pauleta’s strike with just 25 minutes remaining.

Chateauroux vs PSG Prediction

This should be a testing fixture on the road for PSG, but it remains extremely difficult to see past the reigning French champions. PSG look to be the best bet to win this game, and they could claim a 3-0 win on the road.
