Fiorentina form and stats

Let's have a look at how Fiorentina performed last season in the Serie A: They landed a 7th position in the league table after playing out 19 victories, 5 draws and 14 defeats. In total they scored 59 and conceded 51 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 6 - drew 3 and lost 10 with 21/31 goals scored/conceded.

The followers enjoyed Fiorentina's previous match versus FC Twente, a Europa Conference League win (2-1) played at home. That victory felt nice as this club had gone three league fixtures without winning. Biraghi, who plays in defense, got the "man of the match" on his team with the rating 8.24. Biraghi served one assist, hit five key passes and won 8 of 10 duels.

Before that, Fiorentina secured a home win against Cremonese with the score 3-2.

The schedule is very tough for Fiorentina now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Europa Conference League game at FC Twente is waiting in only four days.

Head 2 Head

Numbers for the last ten meetings featuring these two participants are: four wins for Empoli, two draws and four wins for Fiorentina. Over 2,5 goals: six times; under 2,5 goals: four games.
