Date: Monday, 16 May 2022
Kick-off at 17:30 UK/ 18:30 CET
Venue: Stadio Luigi Ferraris.
Fiorentina are desperately hanging on to the 7th sport in the table which will enable them to take part in the next edition of the Europa Conference League.
It also needs to be mentioned that they have a shot at securing in 6th place finish, which will award them a ticket to the Europa League of next year. And what’s interesting is that they have the same number of points as that of the 6th placed Roma and the 8th placed Atlanta.
As such these last two fixtures are going to be absolutely nerve-wracking for all three and chances are high we are about to see some major upsets.
It helps Fiorentina that they are pitted against the struggling Sampdoria, who are placed in the bottom-most tier of the table. They have dropped a lot of points in the recent fixtures and are also conceding goals in huge numbers.
Moreover, they have a poor head-to-head record against this opponent over the years and taking into account all these observations, expect Fiorentina to edge out a much needed win this Monday.
