Fiorentina form and stats

Fiorentina have played 17 Serie A games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 7-6-4 (wins-draws-losses).

The Fiorentina followers got no joy from their last fixture, a Europa Conference League duel also played here at Stadio Artemio Franchi: A 1-2 defeat against Basel. The striker Cabral was announced as "man of the match" for Fiorentina with a rating of 7.61/10. Cabral scored one goal and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.

Heartbreak before that as Fiorentina lost 0-1 at Napoli's place.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Fiorentina have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 5 games) they have won 2 times, drawn 2 and lost 1.

The manager Italiano will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Basel in only four days.

Fiorentina have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Stadio Artemio Franchi with 26 goals in 17 league matches. On the other hand, Fiorentina have conceded 21 goals. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 2 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches.

Udinese form and stats

Playing away, Udinese have won 5 games, drawn 4 and suffered 8 defeats in the Serie A this season. Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Udinese's last three away games as they have all been lost.

Masina and Pereyra scored in Udinese's previous match, the home game against Sampdoria that ended 2-0. Becão, who plays in defense, got the "man of the match" on his team with the rating 7.82. Becão won 5 of 8 duels.

Ahead of that game was the 1-1 draw at home against Napoli.

We have checked recent matches where Udinese have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those 4 games were 1 victory, 0 draws and 3 defeats.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Udinese as they have only managed to score 15 times from 17 away games in the league. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. 23 goals have been conceded by Udinese in these games.

Head 2 Head

The two combatants have fought before this season: Udinese - Fiorentina 1-0. Last ten meetings with these participants: Fiorentina won five, Udinese triumphed in three and we saw two draws. two games with over 2,5 goals, eight matches with two goals or less.
