High-flying Fiorentina and goal-friendly Sassuolo are set to trade tackles at the Stadio Artemio Franchi in a potentially high-scoring Serie A fixture.
Fiorentina have racked up four victories from their last five Serie A matches (L1), winning the last three in a row by an aggregate score of 10-3 to remain firmly in contention for European football next season. ‘La Viola’ have registered 30 points after their opening 17 Serie A fixtures this term; their highest points tally at this stage of the season since 2014/15 when they went on to qualify for the Europa League. Interestingly, none of Fiorentina’s 17 Serie A outings this season have ended level (W10, L7). They could become only the fourth side in the competition’s history not to draw any of their inaugural 18 league games. A draw may not be a bad outcome for the hosts, especially considering they’ve only won one of their last seven Serie A meetings with Sassuolo (D2, L4).
Meanwhile, Sassuolo turned a 1-0 half-time deficit into a 2-1 victory at home against Lazio last time out, extending their unbeaten run in Serie A to five matches (W2, D3). Worryingly, ‘I Neroverdi’ have developed a habit of surrendering the lead to their opposition, conceding first in 53% of their top-flight outings this season, including the last four in a row. However, Sassuolo’s eye-catching bounce-back ability has seen them avoid defeat in the last four Serie A matches when shipping the opening goal (W2, D2). Alessio Dionisi’s men have been fun to watch this season, as 14 (78%) of their 17 league fixtures so far have featured over 2.5 total goals. Their all-out-attack approach has seen each of their last 11 Serie A games witness both sides on the scoresheet.
