Fiorentina vs Genoa prediction, H2H & Probable Line-ups – February 2, 2025
One of the matches of the 23rd round of the Italian championship will take place on Sunday at the Artemio Franchi Stadium, where Fiorentina will host Genoa. I suggest a bet on the outcome of this clash with good chances of success.
Match Preview
Last weekend, Raffaele Palladino's team secured an important 2-1 away victory over Lazio, breaking a six-match winless streak in the league (two draws and four losses). Moreover, this was only the second time in the last eight rounds that Fiorentina managed to score more than one goal.
In the league table, the Viola hold sixth place with 36 points, trailing the Champions League zone by just three points. At home, the team has been relatively stable – over the last 14 Serie A home games, they have lost only twice, recording seven wins and five draws. However, Fiorentina has failed to win in their last three home matches.
Last weekend, Genoa confidently defeated Monza 2-0 at home, continuing their consistent point collection – in 10 of the last 12 league matches, Genoa avoided defeat (five wins and five draws). Furthermore, they managed to keep a clean sheet in three of their last four matches.
With 26 points, the team sits in 12th place, trailing Udinese and Torino only on goal difference. However, their attacking potential remains a concern – with just 20 goals scored, Genoa is ahead of only Lecce (15) in Serie A. On the road, the team has performed decently, suffering just one defeat in their last six away matches (three wins, two draws).
Probable Line-ups
- Fiorentina: David de Gea – Dodo, Marin Pongracic, Luca Ranieri, Robin Gosens – Yacine Adli, Rolando Mandragora – Lucas Beltran, Albert Gudmundsson, Michael Folorunsho – Moise Kean
