Fiorentina vs Frosinone Predictions

Fiorentina put up a spirited fight against Roma in midweek, but their winless run remains. They would have seen their clash with Frosinone this weekend as the perfect chance to turn things around, but the visitors have other ideas. Frosinone were able to pull off a first home win of the season in midweek, a result which would have lifted the mood around the camp. Survival still feels like it is a bridge too far, but can the visitors pull off another huge result when they make a visit to a struggling Fiorentina outfit?

The hosts should be in the European mix, but they’ve drifted away from the group of sides above them. Fiorentina have found themselves in an odd vacuum, as they’re now nine points shy of the European spots, but comfortably clear in the top half. They’re drifting towards a 10th place finish, so will they have the will to turn around an awful run of form? The hosts have claimed a single victory in their last 10 matches, which has left them set for a huge upheaval in the summer.

Frosinone are second-bottom in Serie A, which has left them on the verge of a speedy return to Serie B. The strugglers need to close an eight-point gap in their push for survival, which suggests that they’re out of the running. If there is any comfort for the visitors to take – other than the strides they’ve made off the field thanks to promotion – it’s their solid away form at this level. They’ve won 60% of their points and claimed 75% of their league wins in away games this term, which should give them some confidence in this clash.

The visitors are riding high after a 3-2 win over Parma, while they prepare to face a Fiorentina side who have failed to win in their last seven games in front of their own fans. With such poor displays in front of their home support, it’s easy for the atmosphere at the ground to turn. There’s little to cheer about for the hosts at the minute, especially after a season which has been littered with missed opportunities and too many draws.

Fiorentina come into Sunday’s meeting fresh from another draw – their seventh in their last 10 games. Overall this season, they’ve lost only twice at home – drawing half of their matches. They have picked up a huge 15 draws in the league overall, while their last five games here have seen them claim a single point. We are backing this one to finish level, with Fiorentina lacking a cutting edge and any real motivation. We see value in another draw, so we’re backing this one to finish 1-1.
