Fiorentina take on the visitors Atalanta in the round 30 match of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Monday, April 17th at Stadio Artemio Franchi (Florence).
Fiorentina have been excellent lately. Vincenzo Italiano's team is pleasing not only their fans but also neutral Serie A enthusiasts. In fact, the "violets" can even fight for a spot in European competitions, as they are only two points behind the seventh-placed team. Fiorentina have not lost in the league for seven consecutive rounds, and in the last five of them, they have allowed their opponents only one draw and secured four wins. If we look at their last ten matches in all competitions, we can see nine victories, one draw, and no losses.

On the other hand, Gasperini's team has not been impressive this season. Yes, they are currently in sixth place in the table and formally in the race for a Champions League spot. However, in the last seven league rounds, Atalanta has managed only two wins (against modest Empoli and Cremonese). They played goalless draws with Udinese, lost to Milan, Napoli, and Bologna by the same scoreline of 0-2, and were defeated by Lecce (1-2). In their last three away matches in Serie A, the team has achieved only one victory. It is unlikely that they will beat Fiorentina away, who have not suffered any defeats in their last four home matches.
At the moment, we consider Fiorentina to be the favorites in this match. The "Violets" are in much better form than their opponents, and they also have the advantage of playing at home. It could be argued that they are tired after traveling to Poland for the Champions League, where they defeated Lech 4-1. However, if we look at how Vincenzo Italiano's team has played in the league after their previous four matches in European competition, all doubts disappear – three wins and one draw. The head-to-head statistics also favor Fiorentina. Gasperini's team has lost three of their last four encounters with the "violets," including the most recent one away from home. I believe that the hosts will not lose at least in this match.
Prediction for the match: Fiorentina to win with 0.0 handicap.
