Pompeii is the last place the giacchettine want to visit
Frosinone will be feeling positive ahead of Saturday's trip to Firenze as they have played better than Fiorentina recently, winning six of their last ten across all competitions, but the giallazzurri could run into trouble at Artemio Franchi. The Viola have won just four of their ten this season, which looks like a decent return for a team in transition, but two defeats and four draws makes them look spotty rather than smooth.
They are coming into this game off the back of a 2-2 away draw against Real Madrid, a 1-1 draw at home to Deportivo A Coruna and a 4-1 home win over Benevento in the Coppa Italia 2026/2027 and it's hard to know which Fiorentina will show up here.
- Fabio Grosso has got the Fiorentina playing a propositive 4-3-3 with wide attacks, a high tempo and aggressive pressing to get the ball back quickly.
- Roberto Piccoli has been their spark plug, scoring three of their 10 goals in the last five across all competitions.
- Frosinone will get after Fiorentina, so this is a clash of contrasting styles, although Massimiliano Alvini is much more pragmatic in setting them up in either a 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1.
Frosinone will frustrate Fiorentina
Form and recent results
Giorgi Kvernadze has been Frosinone's spark plug, netting two of their five goals in their last five games across all competitions, but they come into this clash with mixed momentum after winning two, drawing two and losing one of their previous five. After being held 2-2 at home by Benevento, they lost 2-1 at home to SS Lazio, but then beat Juve Stabia 4-1 away in the midweek Coppa Italia 2026/2027 round.
On paper, the Viola should win on home turf, but the visitors have won two and lost none of their two away matches across all competitions while conceding only 0.50 goals per game on average. The clash is always a big game for Frosinone, but this fixture usually rewards the hosts and the most recent Serie A clash in 2023/2024 resulted in a 5-1 home victory for Fiorentina.
Odds and prediction
The odds here have Fiorentina as the 1.5 favorites against 5.75 for Frosinone and 4.25 for the draw.
So, we are going to go with the home side to edge it here, but the recent form of the visitors and the fact that Alvini will have his men pressing at the top of their game suggests this could be a very energetic game with plenty of goals.
Over 2.5 goals at 1.8 seems like a live wager considering the setups of both sides and the goals scored in their recent matches.
