Fiorentina vs Frosinone Betting Tips

Fiorentina resolved a tricky stretch of form with a 2-0 away win against Verona in midweek action. Even after losing to Roma and Napoli, their early season consistency means that they are just two points off of top place, which is a perfectly good place to be at this stage in the season.

That consistency will once again be tested out on Sunday when they face Frosinone, the newly-promoted side that has actually discovered a little bit of form after a shaky start to the season. For Fiorentina, Sunday’s game is about ball possession, taking chances and taking advantage of the control they are likely to enjoy.

Frosinone have won three of their last five games. That’s something we didn’t expect to write after they started the season playing so poorly, not just based on results, but on the manner of their defeats. Wins over Empoli, Sampdoria and Carpi have helped them to climb out of the bottom three for the first time this season.

Of course, all three of those victories have come on home soil. Frosinone picked up one draw, against Juventus away from home, but they haven’t even scored a goal in three of their last four matches on the road.

Three Reasons for Betting Tips

1. Fiorentina should score enough goals

At times Fiorentina are guilty of not being ruthless enough and not taking their chances, but we think that Frosinone will sit back enough and welcome Fiorentina’s attacks enough for goals to be scored in this game.

2. Using Lazio as a marker

Against a similar opponent in terms of playing style and quality, Frosinone lost 2-0 away against Lazio on October 4. Fiorentina are probably slightly stronger than Lazio, which gives us confidence in the Asian Handicap line.

3. Converting home form to away form

Frosinone’s relative recovery in 2015-16 has come at home, their away form remains pretty sporadic.
