Leverkusen vs Borussia Dortmund Prediction: Bundesliga Match on 29.01.2023

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

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!"

PSG return to Ligue 1 action for the first time since the middle of January on Saturday evening. The French champions will be aware that they are in a fight for the title, and they can’t afford to drop points against a consistent Reims side.

Villarreal vs Rayo Vallecano Prediction: La Liga Match on 30.01.2023

Ligue 1 Preview

PSG has been around the world in between domestic fixtures over the past couple of weeks, but all their attention will be back on Ligue 1 this weekend. The Parisians booked their spot in the next round of the French Cup earlier this week, with Kylian Mbappe scoring five in a 7-0 win over Pays de Cassel. However, their advantage at the top of the French top flight stands at just three points at the half way stage.

Their league form in recent weeks has been slightly shaky, as they have lost two of their previous three matches. PSG’s latest league outing came on the road against Rennes, as they were beaten 1-0. In that fixture, PSG managed just a single shot on target, meaning that more will be expected of their star attackers on Sunday evening in Paris.

Reims is unlikely to be afraid of this challenge, as they have shown consistent form throughout the season. However, their upcoming run of fixtures is likely to determine their season, as they currently sit ten points above the drop zone, and just 12 points off the European places.

They come into this fixture in fine form, as they have gone five without defeat in Ligue 1, winning twice during that period. However, they will be looking to get back on track in the league this weekend, as they could only play out a 0-0 draw against Nice in their previous fixture.

PSG vs Reims Head to Head

PSG has an excellent record in this fixture, as they have gone five without defeat against Reims. However, the last win for Reims in this fixture was recorded in Paris. The previous meeting between the sides ended in a 0-0 draw, meaning that Reims has now failed to score against PSG in the previous five meetings.

PSG vs Reims Prediction

PSG will be looking to put down a marker for the remainder of the season this weekend, as they face a close battle for the title. We can see them comfortably claiming maximum points this weekend, and a 3-0 win may be the most likely result.
