Juventus have a 30-8 advantage with 17 draws from 55 previous matches against Fiorentina. The bookies have Juventus as favourites at 4/6 with Unibet while a victory for Fiorentina is valued at 49/10 with SBK. Like Juventus, defending has also been a problem for Fiorentina, particularly on the road where they have kept just one clean sheet in their last six matches. Vincenzo Italiano’s men have claimed three wins and suffered three defeats from their last six Serie A matches and are currently seventh on the table. La Viola are playing better than they did last season but are still plagued by bouts of inconsistency. They were barely troubled throughout the contest and secured the win thanks to a hat-trick from Dusan Vlahovic. Juventus’ recent problems can be attributed to a vulnerable backline that has conceded seven goals in their last four matches across all competitions.įiorentina travel to Juventus off the back of a 3-0 victory over Spezia in their previous Serie A fixture. It was a welcome distraction from a three-match winless run in Serie A which includes a disappointing 2-1 defeat at Verona last time out. Juventus will go into Saturday’s clash in high spirits after progressing to the round 16 of the Champions League following a 4-2 victory over Zenit St Petersburg. While Massimiliano Allegri's men have won every match on the continent this term, they have struggled domestically and are currently ninth on the table. There has been a stark contrast between Juventus’ form in Serie A and the UEFA Champions League this season. Both teams have shown similar form lately and are likely to cancel each other out.

It has been a topsy-turvy season for Juventus this term and will be looking to put together a positive run when they host Fiorentina.
