Fiorentina are well in the mix for a Champions League finish in Serie A this term, and they will be bidding to continue their strong start to the season when they return to league action this Sunday to host Udinese in Florence.
Serie A Preview
There is an unpredictable nature to the race for the Champions League spots in Serie A this term, with at least four sides competing for the fourth position in the league standings. At present, Fiorentina holds the advantage in that specific race, and they will be looking to build further momentum when they return to action in the competition on Sunday.
The team from Florence have won three of their last four matches, and they currently sit a point clear of fifth-placed Bologna. Fiorentina will be looking for a response this weekend though after losing for the sixth time this term in their previous match against Sassuolo. The Italian side found little in the way of a response in that match, mustering just three shots on target after falling behind inside ten minutes.
Udinese will also be playing under pressure this weekend, as they look for a massive result that could see them move clear of the relegation places in the Serie A standings. The Italian side have suffered two defeats in their last five matches, while they have picked up a joint-low of just two victories this term.
Their recent run of form means that they sit just three points clear of the relegation places coming into this round of matches, and a return to form will be needed. But, they have played out a league-high of eleven draws this term, and that would be an outcome they would be happy with this weekend.
Fiorentina vs Udinese Head to Head
Fiorentina have dominated the previous meetings between these two sides after winning each of the last two without conceding. Interestingly, both teams haven’t scored in each of the last six meetings between the sides. Udinese’s last win against Fiorentina was a home success in August 2022.
Fiorentina vs Udinese Prediction
Fiorentina’s excellent record in this fixture could be the key trend to follow this weekend. Therefore, we will be siding with the home side to land victory to enhance their chances of finishing in a Champions League spot this term.
