Serie A Standing BEFORE the game:
Fiorentina, 7th position with 56 points and a positive goal difference of +13
Salernitana, 18th position with 22 points and a negative goal difference of -43
Salernitana are motivated after leaving the last position and climbing to the 18th position with three precious points thus relaunching the hopes of salvation. Salernitana win the Serie A Week 34 game defeating Fiorentina on Sunday 24 April 2022 at the Arechi Stadium in Salerno, Italy. This is a tough loss for Fiorentina slowing down their battle for a spot in the Europa League next season becoming difficult. A prestigious victory for Salernitana winning for the first time in Serie A three consecutive games.
This victory allows Salernitana to reach 25 points in the standings and approach the 16th and 17th place occupied by Sampdoria and Cagliari. Fiorentina, on the other hand, remains at 56.
Salernitana win their first home game in Serie A since October 2nd (1-0 v Genoa. Salernitana defeated Fiorentina 2-1 with Milan Djuric scoring in the 9th minute unlocking the result. Fiorentina equalized in the 64th minute with Riccardo Saponara. The winning goal arrived for Salernitana in the 79th minute with Federico Bonazzoli. Third consecutive victory for Salernitana while Fiorentina interrupted their three successes in a row.
In the next round Salernitana will play the away game against Atalanta and Fiorentina will play away from home against AC Milan (there will be the recovery game with Udinese).
Previously, Coach Davide Nicola has faced Fiorentina 8 times as a coach in Serie A, achieving only one win (with Crotone on 29 October 2017). Hence, the importance for Nicola with this second victory. Nicola coaching Salernitana is unbeaten in his last four games against Fiorentina, thanks to that win, followed by three draws (with Udinese, Genoa and Torino).
✅ Fiorentina have won three of their five games against Salernitana in Serie A.
Fiorentina have won their last three Serie A matches against newly-promoted teams without conceding a goal: the Viola have not enjoyed a longer clean sheet streak against such opponents in the competition since 1996 (four, with Claudio Ranieri). Fiorentina have won their last three league games and haven’t recorded a longer winning streak since April 2018 (six with Stefano Pioli) – the Viola could also keep clean sheets in two consecutive Serie A games for the first time this season, after the 1-0 against Venezia.
Fiorentina haven’t kept a clean sheet in their last 12 Serie A away games: the last time they recorded a longer such streak away from home dates back to a run between November 2009 and October 2010 (16).
