Fiorentina form and stats

The home supporters can't complain about results here at Stadio Artemio Franchi as Fiorentina have scored 34 goals to get 35 points from 16 games. The overall stats in the Serie A are 11-2-3 (wins-draws-losses). Fiorentina are on a three game winning streak in their home games.

Fiorentina lost their last game at Salernitana (placed 19th) after a 1-2 scoreline. Midfielder Saponara was the best player on the team with a rating of 7.34 (out of ten) in that game. Saponara scored one goal.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Fiorentina's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played five games, won three matches, drawn one and lost one.

Fiorentina are traveling soon after this match as the Serie A match at Milan awaits in four days.

With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (34 in 16 games), Fiorentina's attacking play is working. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 3 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches.

Udinese form and stats

There's been little loot from Udinese's travels as they have only collected 15 points from 16 away games in the Serie A. Udinese only have 3 wins to counter their 7 defeats and 6 draws.

Udinese has to pack their bags again for the second away game in a row. Last time they traveled to Bologna for a 2-2 draw. Attacker Success got a player rating of 8.41 in the game. "Man of the match" Success scored one goal, served one assist and hit two key passes.

A loss against Salernitana was the result prior to that, in a home game.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Udinese playing away, we found four games. Results were one away win, one draw and two home wins.

A new game in only four days for Udinese, the Serie A home match versus Inter. Busy days.
