Serie A is back in action with another set of matches this week as Fiorentina lock horns with Maurizio Sarri's Lazio side in an important clash at the Stadio Olimpico on Monday.
Lazio vs Fiorentina Preview
Fiorentina are currently in fifth place in the Serie A standings and have stepped up to the plate so far this season. La Viola thrashed Cukaricki by a comprehensive 6-0 scoreline in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar result this week.
Lazio, on the other hand, are in ninth place in the league table at the moment and have not been at their best so far this season. The home side slumped to a 3-1 defeat at the hands of Feyenoord in the UEFA Champions League this week and will need to bounce back in this match.
