Fiorentina 2-1 Genoa

Current streaks

Recent form

Fiorentina

Fiorentina's recent form has been patchy, with a much-needed away win against Lazio breaking a four-match winless streak. The Viola have struggled defensively, failing to keep a clean sheet in their last eight matches and conceding an average of 1.83 goals per game over their last six outings. Their attacking output has also dipped, scoring just 1.17 goals per game in the same period. Despite these challenges, Fiorentina have been involved in some high-scoring encounters, with 83% of their recent matches seeing over 2.5 goals and both teams finding the net in 83% of games. The 3-0 defeat to Napoli stands out as a particularly heavy loss, while the 2-2 draw against Juventus showcases their ability to compete with top sides. Currently sitting 6th in Serie A, Fiorentina will be keen to improve their consistency to maintain their position in the European qualification spots.

Genoa

Genoa have shown a mixed run of form in their recent fixtures, with three wins, two losses, and a draw in their last six matches. The team has demonstrated resilience by bouncing back from defeats with victories, as evidenced by their win against Monza following a loss to AS Roma. Defensively, Genoa have been solid, keeping three clean sheets and conceding only six goals in six games, which is an impressive average of one goal per match. Their attacking output has been moderate, scoring 1.17 goals per game on average. Interestingly, there's a perfect balance in their recent matches, with 50% of games seeing both teams score and an even split between matches going over and under 2.5 goals. Despite their current 12th position in Serie A, Genoa's recent form suggests they are capable of competing well in the league.

Recent home/away form

Fiorentina

Fiorentina's recent home form has been rather inconsistent, with two wins, two draws, and two losses in their last six matches at the Stadio Artemio Franchi. The Viola have struggled to maintain a consistent run, alternating between positive and negative results. However, their home form has been marked by some high-scoring affairs, most notably the emphatic 7-0 victory over Lask Linz in the Europa Conference League, which significantly boosted their goal-scoring average to 2 goals per game. Despite this, Fiorentina have also shown defensive vulnerabilities, keeping only two clean sheets in their last six home matches and conceding an average of 1.33 goals per game. The team's tendency towards high-scoring matches is evident, with 67% of their recent home games featuring over 2.5 goals, providing entertainment for the fans but also highlighting defensive concerns.

Genoa

Genoa have shown impressive form away from home in their recent fixtures, displaying resilience and defensive solidity. The team have gone unbeaten in five of their last six away matches, including a notable run of three consecutive wins against Parma, Udinese, and Empoli. Defensively, Genoa have been particularly strong, keeping four clean sheets in their last six away games and conceding an average of just 0.67 goals per game. Their recent away form has been characterised by low-scoring encounters, with 67% of these matches featuring under 2.5 goals. However, Genoa's goal-scoring record on the road has been modest, averaging just one goal per game. The team's most recent away fixture against AS Roma saw their unbeaten run come to an end in a 3-1 defeat, which was also the highest-scoring game in this sequence of away matches.
