Preview
Fiorentina won their last match in the Serie A 1-0 against Udinese and continue their wonderful start to the season.
Vlahovic’s first half penalty was the difference as Fiorentina picked up their 4th win of the season which took them to 5th in the table.
This was their 4th win in the last 5 matches as well, which shows their consistency.
On the other hand, Napoli will look to put away the minor blip in mid-week when they lost at home 2-3 to Spartak in the Europa League.
Elmas opened the scoring for the hosts before Promes equalized for the visitors but he scored only once at the death while Ignatov found the back of the net as well.
Osimhen pulled one back in extra time but it proved to be a consolation effort.
But in the Serie A, Napoli is in fine form and are table toppers with 18 points. Their last win was against Cagliari 2-0 earlier this week.
The last time both sides met each other in the Serie A, Napoli won 2-0 in May with Insigne and Venuti’s own goal ensured a win for the Naples based side.
