Fiorentina vs. AC Milan Betting Analysis
Fiorentina Facts To Know
It looks set to be a crucial end to the season for Fiorentina, as their survival in Serie A is still far from assured. The Fiorentina standings currently see them sit 12th in the Italian top-flight, but they do have a comfortable eleven-point cushion over the bottom three places. However, they come into this fixture having picked up just a single victory from their previous five matches.
The majority of their best performances have come in home fixtures this season, as they have won four of their 12 games. However, they come into this home match against Milan after going three matches at the Stadio Artemio Franchi without a success. But, their confidence appeared to return in their latest match, as they recorded a 3-0 away win against Hellas Verona.
Following that win, they will be looking to win back-to-back games in Serie A without conceding for the first time since January 2020. Antonin Barak, Arthur Cabral, and Cristiano Biraghi scored the goals in their most recent win.
AC Milan Facts To Know
The AC Milan betting odds will show them as the clear favorites to pick up maximum points this weekend. Milan has been in solid recent form, as they have consolidated their place in the Champions League positions by winning their previous three matches. However, a place in the top four is likely the best that they can manage this term, as they are already 18 points adrift of Napoli.
They will still face a fight to achieve that finish, as they are just three clear of fifth-placed AS Roma coming into this weekend’s fixture. Milan produced possibly their best performance of the season so far in their latest match, as they recorded a 2-0 home win over Atalanta.
The win also marked the return to action of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who made his first appearance of the season for Milan. The Swedish star’s return could make for an interesting Fiorentina vs AC Milan betting prediction angle this weekend.
Updates
Milan will be without a number of key players this weekend. Rafael Leao will be the biggest miss, as the forward is suspended for the trip to Florence. Davide Calabria and Ismael Bennacer will also miss out on selection with injuries. Meanwhile, it will also be good news for those making soccer picks on the hosts, as Vincenzo Italiano has a fully fit squad to select from.
