Fiorentina are aiming to find some traction for their campaign as they host AC Milan in a Serie A fixture on Sunday. The Rossoneri have looked solid in recent weeks and will be confident of extending their fine record in this fixture.
Fiorentina have not made the best start to the season as they have picked up just one win from their opening six Serie A matches. However, the good news is that they have suffered just one defeat.
After battling to a 0-0 draw with Empoli last time out in Serie A, Fiorentina bounced back in the Europa Conference League. They claimed a 2-0 victory over The New Saints and manager Raffaelle Palladino will be keen to build on that result.
AC Milan head into Sunday’s clash off the back of a 1-0 Champions League defeat to Bayer Leverkusen. That was the second defeat in the competition for Paulo Fonseca’s men, who are struggling in Europe.
While things remain difficult in Europe, AC Milan appear to have found their rhythm on the domestic front. They have won their last three Serie A fixtures and triumphed 3-0 over Lecce last time out.
How the bookies view it: Rossoneri to triumph
AC Milan have the upper hand among the bookies and are priced at 5/4 by Betfred to claim the win. Fiorentina are considered outsiders, with a home win valued at 21/10 by Betfred, who is offering 5/2 for a draw.
Head to head: Upper hand for Milan
AC Milan have a 28-18 advantage with 13 draws from 59 previous matches against Fiorentina. The Rossoneri have also won four of the last five meetings and did the double last season, with the clash at the Stadio Artemio Franchi ending in a 2-1 victory.
Players to watch: Pulisic still hot
Christian Pulisic remains the biggest attacking threat for AC Milan and will be the one to watch on Sunday. The forward has found the net in five of the last six matches and is priced at 5/2 by Betfred to maintain his scoring run.
Moise Kean has also got some joy up front for Fiorentina, scoring four goals across all competitions this season. The striker could be worth keeping an eye on to find the net on Sunday at 21/10 with Betfred.
Probable line-ups
Kean and Albert Gudmundsson were second half substitutes in the Conference League and could partner in attack on Sunday. Edoardo Bove could also return to the midfield having sat out the win against The New Saints.
Forward Noah Okafor has recovered from a muscle problem but is likely to settle for a place on the bench. Alvaro Morata could return to partner Tammy Abraham in attack after coming off the bench in the Champions League.
Fiorentina: De Ge, Gosens, Comuzzo, Ranieri, Dodo, Bove, Cataldi, Sottil, Kouame, Gudmundsson, Kean
AC Milan: Maignan, Royal, Tomori, Gabbia, Hernandez, Reijnders, Fofana, Leao, Pulisic, Morata, Abraham
