THE PREDICTION
The success of promotion last season was bittersweet for the hosts as return to the top-flight was balanced by the loss of their manager, Alessio Dionisi, to Sassuolo. Aurelio Andreazzoli has been able to recruit impressively with the signings of Sebastiano Luperto and Patrick Cutrone as standouts. They come up against a Lazio side now under the coaching of Maurizio Sarri. If Sarri gets it right then it could be thrilling for the visitors. Ciro Immobile is expected to score a lot of goals with both Sergej Milinkovic-Savic and Luis Alberto playing as ‘free eight’s’ in an attacking midfield. Lazio will be the favourites for this match but both teams scoring looks likely.
