At 02:45 a.m. Beijing time on April 29, 2024, the 34th round of Serie A will start a contest, and Purple Lily Fiorentina will face Sassuolo at home, which is fighting for relegation. Who's going to be killed in this game? I'm going to give you some brief analysis of this game.
Fiorentina are currently ninth in the league and have struggled to reach the top six, so Fiorentina are in a state of desperation this season. And they have been in a tight schedule lately, with Fiorentina losing 4-1 to Atalanta in the second leg of the Coppa Italia semi-final in midweek. With two consecutive league and cup defeats in the near future in the slump and a knockout tie against Club Brugge next week, Fiorentina will not be at full strength with a busy schedule.
In contrast, Serie A's long-established powerhouse Sassuolo has been quite sluggish this season, and so far, Sassuolo is only in the bottom two of the league. The gap with Verona has been opened up by 5 points, and the relegation situation is already quite serious. To make matters worse, Sassuolo have failed to win 13 of their last 14 league games and are in extremely poor form. However, in the face of the multi-front battle and physical worries, the Sassuolo team seems to see the best opportunity to grab points and relegation. Sassuolo, who are fighting for relegation, will surely go all out to win this game. Because in the next round they will face Inter Milan, who have already won the championship in advance. In terms of personnel, Sassuolo's Italy international Berardi is out for the season due to injury.
To sum up, judging from the desire of the two teams, the Sassuolo team playing away is obviously stronger. In terms of head-to-head records, Sassuolo, which has played away from home in the last 6 meetings between the two sides, has a record of 3 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses, with a slight upper hand. Therefore, I am personally optimistic about this game, and the Sassuolo team, which is fighting for relegation, will be able to get out of the game.
