The 2022/2023 Italian Serie A season is gearing towards another exciting season, with teams making it difficult for each other.
However, some teams have found a way to ensure they remain unbeaten so far. We would love to see how long these teams push their record and what team would be the last one standing.
As we move into the fifth week of the season, let’s check out these teams and what they’ve been doing so far. Notably, we want to focus on the game between Fiorentina and Juventus.
Top Teams Last Season
Two top teams in the league last season. Undoubtedly, it would be an incredible run for both sides.
We expect an exciting game as Juventus aims to extend their unbeaten run, and Fiorentina tries to increase their win tally to two.
It should be an epic game with both sides looking for three points to better their chances of finishing higher and at least make it to the UEFA Champions League next season.
As they prepare to host each other, let’s check out the teams and their stats as we give you our Fiorentina vs. Juventus best bets.
Fiorentina vs. Juventus Matchup Information
Fiorentina is set to welcome Juventus from Turin at the Stadio Artemio Franchi in Florence. The teams would be looking to increase their points tally, and Fiorentina would have home ground support to increase their edge.
Daniele Doveri referees the match and has a record of 0.21 red cards per game and 4.73 yellow cards per game.
With Doveri controlling the match, we expect the teams to have some freedom as he is famous for allowing play to continue.
Get ready for the action to kick off at 08:00 AM EDT on Saturday, the 3rd of September. It is gearing up for an exciting weekend in the Italian Serie A.
Impressive Serie A Record
Juventus and Fiorentina have had an impressive record in Serie A. They’ve met in various games, with Juventus having some of the best records.
In their last meeting, Fiorentina was the better side as they saw off Juventus in a 2-0 win. They outplayed the Old Lady from start to finish.
Even though Fiorentina was on the better side, both goals came from the extreme of both halves. Alfred Duncan scored the first in additional time of the first half before Nicolas Gonzalez made it 2-0 in the 92nd minute to close the game. Juventus will be looking for revenge as they return to Florence.
Fiorentina vs. Juventus Analysis
The record was shared between both sides before their last meeting. They’ve had two draws in their last six meetings. Fiorentina won two in that period. Meanwhile, Juventus also has two wins in that period.
It has always been a hard-fought game between both teams. So, we don’t think it would be different.
The last time Juventus won at Florence was in 2018 when they scored three un-replied goals. Since then, they’ve only managed two draws at Florentina.
Serie A Team Stats
Their Serie A team stats show that they both have more to give in this game, and as a result, we expect a tight game as both teams try to add three points to their current tally.
Fiorentina is currently on four games without a win and hasn’t scored a single goal in their last four matches, and they average over 4.5 cards in four of their last five games.
On the other hand, Juventus is unbeaten in their last four matches, and they average less than 4.5 cards in seven of their last eight matches.

Fiorentina vs. Juventus Betting Analysis
Fiorentina Analysis
The team started the season with a win against Cremonese. It was a hard-fought game that they played against a solid defensive team who played most of the game with ten men. Fiorentina opened the scoring in the 16th minute.
Fiorentina Performance Recap
But three minutes later, David Okereke equalized before Luka Jovic made it 2-1 in the 34th minute, and Gonzalo Escalante mounted the pressure on the team when he received a red card.
In the second half, Matteo Bianchetti scored 2-2 for Cremonese despite playing with ten men and a goal down.
Unfortunately, even though they fought hard in the game, they lost when Rolando Mandragora scored the late winner in the 95th minute. It was an exciting game that we didn’t want it to end.
Since that win, the team hasn’t done too well. They drew their next two games and didn’t score a single goal in any matches.
It was a tight match that saw two teams try endlessly without getting a breakthrough. Then in the last match, the team lost to Udinese from an early goal from Beto. They played well but couldn’t get a goal before the game ended.
Juventus Analysis
Like Fiorentina, Juventus started their season well. They beat Sassuolo 3-0. It was an easy game that showed them their dominance and readiness for the new season.
We expected Juventus to push for more wins to ensure they are close to winning the title this season. However, it wasn’t the case in the next two matches as they couldn’t get a win.
The team drew against Sampdoria and Roma. However, they’ve been able to make a comeback against Spezia when they played at Turin and won 2-0.
Juventus Position at the Stats
With these stats, they are currently fifth on the Serie A standings. We would expect them to bring their A-game. So, we would consider them in our Fiorentina vs. Juventus best bets.
