Fiorentina will be looking to continue their excellent run of form in Serie A this weekend, as they chase a sixth straight win. However, Spezia is still fighting for their lives at the bottom of the standings, and will desperately be looking for a positive result on the road.
Serie A Preview
It has been an excellent few months for Fiorentina, and they could still have an outside chance of finishing the season in a European spot. They come into this fixture sitting ninth in the overall standings, but no team in the Italian top flight is currently on a longer winning sequence. Fiorentina will be chasing a sixth straight win this weekend, and it could lift them up into eighth place in the standings.
The Italian side recorded their biggest win of the season in their previous fixture, as they registered a 1-0 win at the San Siro against Inter Milan. Giacomo Bonaventura scored the winning goal in that fixture, but Fiorentina will need to balance multiple competitions over the next couple of weeks, which could damage their league form.
Spezia remains locked in the relegation battle in Serie A. However, they still have a comfortable cushion over the teams around them, as they are six points clear of the drop zone. But, they come into this fixture on the road after recording just one win in their previous five matches.
Still, they have lost once over that period. In their previous match, they battled back well to steal a 1-1 home draw against Salernitana. The equalising goal was scored with 20 minutes remaining by Eldo Shomurodov. However, this looks set to be a more testing fixture this weekend.
