Lazio vs Napoli: Recent History

Maurizio Sarri has finally managed to orchestrate a beautiful melody from his Lazio squad in recent weeks, picking up five wins across Serie A and the Coppa Italia prior to the team’s ill-fated Supercoppa Italiana trip.

The Biancocelesti weren’t at their best in Saudi Arabia, falling to Scudetto hopefuls and eventual Supercoppa winners Inter 3-0 in their semi-final clash. This has been a slight blessing in disguise, however, allowing the squad to return their focus to Serie A.

Lazio sit sixth in the Serie A table after 20 games, just a point behind fourth place Fiorentina. Every match is vital for Sarri’s side now as they try to carve out a spot for themselves in the top four. To make your pick on where they will finish this season, visit bet365 รหัสโบนัส.

Napoli have been a team under transformation this month, being one of the most active Italian clubs in the January transfer window. Aurelio De Laurentiis has brought in a number of players including Cyril Ngonge, Pasquale Mazzocchi, Hamed Junior Traore and Leander Dendoncker.

Walter Mazzarri’s side have been a little wild in recent weeks, winning just two of their last seven league games. In Saudi Arabia, they cruised past Fiorentina 3-0 in their Supercoppa semi-final before losing to Inter in the final.

When these two teams met back at the start of September, Lazio edged out a 2-1 win after goals from Luis Alberto and Daichi Kamada, nullifying Piotr Zielinski’s equaliser.

Team News & Expected Starting Lineups

Lazio almost have a fully fit squad heading into their clash with Napoli, with the only doubt being defender Patric, who is recovering from a minor physical issue. Ciro Immobile and Mattia Zaccagni are both unavailable through suspensions, weakening the team’s frontline.

Napoli are without the injured Alex Meret, Mathias Olivera and Natan, with Mazzocchi also in doubt. Giovanni Simeone, Jens Cajuste and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia are all suspended for the match, whilst star striker Victor Osimhen and midfielder André-Frank Zambo Anguissa are away at the Africa Cup of Nations.

Lazio (4-3-3): Provedel; Marusic, Gila, Romagnoli, Pellegrini; Guendouzi, Rovella, Luis Alberto; Felipe Anderson, Castellanos, Isaksen.

Napoli (3-4-3): Gollini; Di Lorenzo, Rrahmani, Juan Jesus; Mazzocchi, Lobotka, Zielinski, Mario Rui; Politano, Raspadori, Lindstrøm.
