Fiorentina – Sassuolo

Fiorentina host Sassuolo in what promises to be a crucial clash for both sides, with the hosts languishing in 15th place on just three points from one win and three defeats, scoring five and conceding eleven. Sassuolo sit comfortably in 9th, having amassed seven points from two victories, a draw and a single loss, and enjoy a modest +1 goal difference after netting eight and letting in seven. The disparity in recent form means the visitors will be looking to extend their unbeaten run, while the Florentines must seize the opportunity to climb out of the relegation zone. A win for Fiorentina could dramatically tighten the bottom half of the table, whereas a draw would keep Sassuolo within striking distance of a top‑half finish.
