Fiorentina vs Genoa PREVIEW & PREDICTION 07/12/2020

On Monday, starting with 19:45, the match Fiorentina – Genoa will be played, within the round with number 10 in Serie A.

Fiorentina cannot afford new mistakes after the defeats suffered with Benevento and AC Milan. Otherwise, its ranking, already extremely modest for the claims of “Viola”, would be even more complicated. In the perspective of Monday night’s confrontation, the most important aspect that we must emphasize regarding Fiorentina is the fact that Cesare Prandelli, positive for the Covid-19 virus, will not be able to sit on the technical bench, his place following to be taken by Gabriele Pin.

If the host team has to deal without the head coach, the guests have an even bigger problem: the goalkeeper position. Rolando Maran, the “red and blue” technician, will have an extremely great difficulty in choosing the goalkeeper, after the injury suffered by Mattia Perin. Most likely, the post between the posts will be taken by Alberton Paleari, a 28-year-old goalkeeper who has never appeared in the first league of Italy. Certainly, the Gada team will try to take advantage of this vulnerability of Genoa and, logically, will approach the duel in a way that is as offensive as possible.

Fiorentina (4-2-3-1): Dragowski – Caceres, Milenkovic, Pezzella, Biraghi – Amraba, Borja Valero – Callejon, Casrovilli, Ribery – Vlahovic;

Genoa (3-5-2): Paleari – Goldaniga, Bani, Masiello – Ghiglione, Sturaro, Badelj, Lerager, Pellegrini – Shomuradov, Scamacca.

Biraschi, Criscito and Zappacosta, absent, will not play for the guest team;
Fiorentina, without victory in the last 4 stages of Serie A;
Genoa got only one victory in the first e9 rounds of the championship.


PREDICTION: Fiorentina to win @ 1,79
