Fiorentina's trip to Verona this weekend feels like a classic trap game, especially after their Coppa Italia final heartbreak against Inter. The key matchup to watch will be how the Viola’s midfield, likely led by Sofyan Amrabat, deals with Verona’s aggressive press, a tactic that has troubled Fiorentina before.
Verona, sitting 18th in Serie A with a 3-9-18 record, are fighting for their lives and have shown some unexpected grit at home, even if their overall form is poor. They just beat Lecce 1-0 and drew with Udinese, so they’re not rolling over for anyone. Fiorentina, on the other hand, lost their last league match 2-1 to Inter before the Coppa final, and their 6-11-13 record doesn't exactly scream dominance. I think Fiorentina still has enough quality, even if their heads aren't fully in it. Fiorentina takes this one 2-1.
