A request for you or to you

Hullo Users!
I'm a bit unsure about how to join the word you to the combination of words to have a request (in the sense of a polite demand). I don't know if the word to or for is used to do so.
Could you lend me a hand with the problem, please?

This is natural, but I don't know if it's what you're looking for: I have a request for you.

We say: "I have a request for you."

exactly like: "I have a question for you."
