Fiorentina hosts Juventus in round 33 of Italian Serie A. The match will be played on Sunday, April 25th at Stadio Artemio Franchi (Florence)
Fiorentina continues to perform unstably. If last season the club took the final 10th place, then it is on the 14th line in the standings the current Serie A draw, having a negative goal difference. 63-year-old mentor Cesare Prandelli failed to bring the Violets to a new level. His place was taken by Giuseppe Iachini, who had previously headed the team from Florence. Under the new coach, Fiorentina had a 3-match winless streak but managed to break it on Tuesday. Despite the advantage of Verona in the game, the Violets won with a score of 1-2. The hero of the meeting was the young 21-year-old striker Dusan Vlahovic, who scored a goal from a penalty spot and made one assist. If you look at the picture as a whole, now Fiorentina does not pretend to anything but simply lays the foundation and forms the backbone for the next season of the Italian championship.

Many analysts and experts predicted that the appointment of inexperienced Andrea Pirlo as head coach of Juventus would be a disastrous decision of the club's management. And so it happened. Just look at the general picture. The Old Lady once again left the Champions League without achieving the desired result. As for the Italian championship, the Black-and-Whites risk not getting into the TOP-4. Another misfire happened last weekend. Juventus lost 1-0 to Atalanta in Bergamo. Without Cristiano Ronaldo, the partners delivered only three shots on the opponent's goal, showed a nondescript game, and deservedly lost. Juve returned 3rd place in the standings after beating Parma on Wednesday (1-3), but Atalanta has a match in hand. Inter Milan is one step away from the champion’s title, but the struggle in the TOP-6 is intensifying since the teams have a high density of points. The end of the season will be hot. The media are already talking that if the Bianconeri do not make it to the Champions League, Ronaldo will leave Turin.
Both Fiorentina and Juventus played 60% of all matches in the current season with an outcome “Both teams to score - yes”. The attacking lines of both teams look good, but the defensive orders cannot be called reliable. The average performance in matches with the participation of Violets and Zebras is 2.9 goals per game. Juventus players are more motivated from a tournament point of view. Moreover, the Black-and-Whites need to take revenge for the humiliating 0-3 defeat in the first round. We will add that Ronaldo is back and ready to play. We should expect spectacular football.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 goals scored
