Fiorentina’s season has hit a flat spot in recent weeks, and they will desperately be looking to get back on track this weekend. The Italian side will have the home advantage when they welcome Sampdoria to Florence on Sunday.
Serie A Preview
It has been an excellent season to this point for Fiorentina, but their campaign could be negatively impacted based on their recent run of form. The team from Florence remains in the hunt for domestic and European glory this season, but they come into this league fixture having failed to win in their previous three. They have also won just twice over their last five matches.
Fiorentina’s unbeaten streak in the league came to an end last weekend, as they were dramatically beaten on the road by Monza. Despite taking a 2-0 lead after 13 minutes following efforts from Christian Kouame and Riccardo Saponara, Fiorentina still ended up on the losing side. Monza scored twice before the break, before they netted the winner just before the hour mark from the penalty spot.

They have failed to win their previous four league matches, and that leaves them with ten points to make up in the battle to stay in the division. Sampdoria has been held to draws in each of their previous two matches, and a victory on Sunday could lift them off the bottom.
Their most recent draw was picked up against Spezia last Saturday. Sampdoria took the lead in that match after 23 minutes, before the visitors struck back with just under half an hour of the 90 remaining.
Fiorentina vs Sampdoria Head to Head
These two sides are very evenly matched based on the recent meetings. Both clubs have picked up two victories apiece over the previous four encounters. Three of the previous four have been won by the side boasting home advantage. The one exception to that trend came earlier in the campaign, as Fiorentina recorded a 2-0 away success against Sampdoria.
Fiorentina vs Sampdoria Prediction
The hosts have the better quality across the field, and we could see them bouncing back to winning ways this weekend after a poor run of results in Serie A. We could see the team from Florence registering a 2-0 success.
