Manchester United vs Fiorentina: match preview
United endured a disappointing last season, finishing only 15th in the table. The club is pursuing an active transfer campaign, aiming to strengthen the squad and perform much better in the new campaign. Among the latest signings is Benjamin Šeško, who joined from Leipzig. The recent pre-season results are impressive: in the Premier League Summer Series, the Red Devils secured two wins and a draw, scoring at least twice in each of those matches.
Fiorentina wrapped up last Serie A season in sixth place and is preparing for the UEFA Conference League qualifiers, where they'll face the winner of the Polesie/Paks tie. Before that, they have a friendly against Manchester United, followed by Conference League qualification, and then on August 24, the Serie A opener against Cagliari. La Viola played four friendlies: two wins, one draw, and one defeat. Notably, they failed to score in their last two matches.
