Fiorentina - Juventus predictions

It’s hard to see even the most ardent of Fiorentina fans expect a victory here. As clear underdogs, even a draw against Juventus would be quite impressive, let alone an upset in the form of a home win.

The match is most likely to go in the away team’s favour, though it’s by no means a sure thing. With 2.06 betting odds to win, The Old Lady have the upper hand going in, but all three possible outcomes are possible.

La Viola are coming off from a difficult trip in the Serie A. It was a close-cut game with level results both at halftime and after the final whistle. The hosts still can draw plenty of positives ahead of their Saturday clash.

Juve haven’t exactly been playing top of their game lately. Last round’s home draw 0:0 against Torino was far from a disaster, but most of us – including the world’s best online bookmakers – expected a lot more considering they played at home.

The first step La Viola need to make to improve is to shore up their defences. With more than 5 goals conceded over the last 3 matches, it seems to be the main aspect of play holding them back.

The home team are hoping to scrape together enough points to move out of the relegation zone, though it seems like an extremely unlikely outcome to this match. We’re only a few rounds into the season, though.

After just 12 games played so far in the Serie A, the away team are sitting at number 6th on the table. While that’s not a bad result, they can do better, so they’ll want to beat Fiorentina no matter how hard it may seem.

The latest head-to-head records we have for this matchup are from a decisive victory La Viola secured last season. Despite the fact they won with a difference of multiple goals, Juventus are widely regarded as the favourites in this matchup.

Both teams will have a complete lineup for an exciting showdown, thanks to the absence of injuries or suspensions.

We can say with no small amount of confidence that this match will confirm the Over 2.5 Goals market. Both teams fit the bill for such a wager perfectly, so this is a very safe bet, offered at the odds of 2.05 at 888Sport.
