A European finish is Viola’s target now

After back-to-back wins in the last two rounds, Fiorentina have now collected 27 points from 16 matches. That is 12 points more than the Viola at this juncture last season and their best season at this stage in five years. As a result and having collected nine points from their last four games, coach Vincenzo Italiano’s ambition will be to push for a European spot. Remarkably, Fiorentina are the only team in Serie A who have no draws this season (W9, L7).

Moreover, the Violas are in great scoring form as they netted three or more goals in their last five victories. Notably, with five home wins, Fiorentina are the joint-second best in the league on their own patch. In addition, with 17 goals at the Artemio Franchi, coach Italiano’s attack is among the best in the league when playing in front of their fans in Florence. However, Fiorentina must be careful of Salernitana as they have already lost to two Serie A newcomers this term.

It’s time to react for Salernitana before it’s too late

Salernitana fans would expected better than the results their team has posted so far on their return to Serie A. In fact, after 22 years away from the top flight, the Garnets managed just eight points in 16 matches winning and drawing twice. Nevertheless, the club’s managerial change didn’t pay off as the Garnets are heavy favourites for an immediate relegation.

Moreover, Salernitana lost all of their seven matches played against the top nine teams and the Garnets failed to score in six of those defeats. Obviously having the worst scoring record among all Serie A teams is what kept coach Colantuono’s team from progressing. Hence, the manager needs to be more aggressive in attack and adopt a much more offensive approach in the coming games.

Fiorentina vs Salernitana Prediction 

Can Fiorentina register their third consecutive victory for the second time this season or will Salernitana find inspiration from somewhere and grab at least a point? The bookies favour the first possibility and are paying out 1.33 for that to happen.

Looking at the goals market, as we covered in the preview, Fiorentina’s recent matches have been filled with them. Indeed, all seven matches played by the Violas at the Artemio Franchi produced over 2.5 goals and  the clubs’s fans have been regularly entertained this season.

To conclude, we think Fiorentina’s scoring form can be maintained in this match against a weak Salernitana defense. Dusan Vlaovic has scored in four consecutive matches and who can stop him in the fifth? Therefore we will back over 2.5 goals in this match and Vlaovic to score anytime for our second prediction.
