Fiorentina are looking to quickly end their 309 minutes long goal drought in the Serie A.
Two travels in a row for Fiorentina, whose manager G. Iachini could celebrate last time after the Coppa Italia win against Udinese (after extra-time). Preceding that, the 0-1 home loss versus Benevento.
Tòfol Montiel came off the bench to score the winning goal in the match against Udinese (after extra-time) last time out, making the manager G. Iachini feel like a tactical genius.
