Competition: Serie A
Market: Both teams to score
Odds: 7/10 @ 888sport
In a real showdown between two Italian giants on Saturday night, Fiorentina will welcome Juventus to the Stadio Artemio Franchi.
Starting with the hosts, while Fiorentina might have gained plenty of plaudits from across Italy this season, the Viola find themselves in the midst of a worrying rut. Last seen putting in a woeful display as they were hit with a shock 4-1 drumming away at Sampdoria, Vincenzo Italiano’s men know that they need a real boost this weekend. Only just holding onto that final European spot thanks to their goal difference, the Purples have now lost five of their last six Serie A contests. However, despite enduring what has been their worst run of the season so far, fans around the Stadio Artemio Franchi should be boosted by their side’s continued success on home soil. On a run that is highlighted by a 2-0 win against Europa Conference League finalists Roma, Fiorentina have picked up 12 points from their last five top-flight fixtures in Tuscany.
As for the visitors, while Juventus might have managed to wrap up a Champions League spot with time to spare this season, the Old Lady also find themselves enduring a recent wobble. Last seen playing out an action-packed 2-2 draw at home against Lazio, Head Coach Massimiliano Allegri finds his side in the midst of a three-match winless run. Watching Inter Milan claim this year’s Coppa Italia title thanks to a 4-2 win earlier in the month, Juve have also shown some real problems at the back this season. Suffering a stunning 2-1 defeat away at Genoa on May 6th, Saturday’s guests have failed to record a clean sheet in any of their previous five domestic contests. In a contest that could see chances at both ends of the Stadio Artemio Franchi pitch this weekend, we’re backing both teams to find the net here.
