Serie A 2025-2026: Fiorentina-Lazio, the likely lineups

The 32nd day of Serie A concludes at 8:45 p.m. at the Stadio Franchi with the match between Fiorentina and Lazio. The Viola, fresh from the Conference League rout against Crystal Palace, throw themselves into the league with an obligation to win in order to move away from the relegation zone for good and boost morale ahead of the return match always at the Franchi. Vanoli will have to rearrange the team given the absences of Fagioli and Gudmundsson disqualified after last day and with Kean not yet at his best. Similarly, Sarri arrives in Florence with a team that seems to have recovered ahead of the Coppa Italia return match against Atalanta, the last hope of qualifying for a Europa League spot.

Vanoli wants to forget the defeat in Europe by fielding the best eleven. In front of De Gea, the central pair is Pongracic and Ranieri, with Dodo and Gosens ready to push on the flanks. Revolution in midfield, where in place of the disqualified Fagioli, Ndour and Brescianini will be supporting Mandragora, who will have to dictate the tempo. In attack, eyes will be on Moise Kean, who in case of forfeit will be replaced by Piccoli, supported by Fazzini and Harrison.

Sarri responds with his classic form. Between the posts is Motta, protected by the experience of Romagnoli and young Provstgaard. The midfield consists of Dele-Bashiru and Taylor on the flanks of the former Cataldi. In attack, the trident consists of Pedro in the center in place of the injured Maldini, flanked by the quickness of Isaksen and Noslin, ready to give no points of reference to the purple defense.
