Fiorentina vs Como Prediction
Fiorentina have had a turbulent campaign with some impressive form and impressive performances then being undermined by quite sustained periods of poor form. However, after three successive victories before a slender 2-1 loss at San Siro against Inter, Fiorentina do look to be back to being upwardly mobile ahead of this one. They now face a Como side that, under the management of Cesc Fabregas, have been entertaining to watch throughout this campaign following their promotion to the top-flight last season with their 24 Serie A matches consisting of 68 goals. Fiorentina are favourites at the Artemio Franchi but it could well be quite a fun watch for the neutral.
