Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
Fiorentina, 12th position with 2 points and a goal difference of “0”
Napoli, 1st position with 6 points and a positive goal difference of +3

Here is the preview for the Fiorentina vs Napoli match in Serie A Week 3, taking place on Saturday, September 13, 2025, at the Artemio Franchi Stadium in Florence, Italy. Here’s the situation. On paper, Napoli, sitting in 1st place with 6 points, are favored to win. Fiorentina, with only 2 points, are currently in 12th place. However, nothing is guaranteed.

Fiorentina has managed to win just two of their last 10 league encounters with Napoli, drawing two and losing six. The two victories for Fiorentina occurred on April 10, 2022 (3-2) and October 8, 2023 (3-1).

Napoli remains unbeaten in their last seven Serie A away games against Fiorentina (W4 D3). They have lost only once in their last 16 league away matches against the Viola (W8 D7): that loss was 0-3 on April 29, 2018, featuring a hat-trick from Giovanni Simeone.

Napoli has achieved 54 Serie A victories over Fiorentina, more than against any other team (54 against Lazio as well). Conversely, Fiorentina has triumphed over Napoli 55 times in Serie A, with only Bologna (58) being a team they have defeated more often in the league.

Fiorentina started the season with two consecutive draws and could now equal their historic record. Notably, they have only drawn all three of their opening matches in a Serie A season twice before, in 1936/37 (including a match against Napoli) and in 2024/25.

Fiorentina has won seven of their last nine home Serie A matches, with just one draw (0-0 against Parma in April) and one defeat (0-2 against Como in February).

✅   Player Statistics

Napoli forward Matteo Politano has netted four goals against Fiorentina in Serie A.  Politano has only scored more against Milan (six) and Genoa (five) in the top division. With one assist already in this tournament, he could achieve his 11th consecutive Serie A season with at least one goal and one assist—Piotr Zielinski and Paulo Dybala are the only other players to have accomplished this in all 10 previous seasons.

Napoli is the team against which Moise Kean has logged the most minutes in Serie A without finding the net (302); however, the Fiorentina forward has been the top scorer at home since the beginning of last season in the Italian top flight with 13 goals.
