Prediction: 2-1
Fiorentina
Saturday’s football match at Stadio Ciro Vigorito pits together Benevento and Fiorentina, the two teams who are level on points in the Serie A standings. Benevento do not seem to be at the top of their game, with the team failing to win the previous ten league fixtures. The Yellow-Reds are eager to escape the danger zone, and we are positive that they will fight tooth and nail against Fiorentina. Dabo is sidelined through suspension, while Iago Falque and Letizia are out of contention through injuries. Depaoli is a major doubt.
The Viola, on the other hand, are on a three-match winless run in the Italian top flight. Fiorentina are not regarded as good travellers, and seeing that they experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 3-3 draw with Parma, home win should be considered. Igor, Kokorin, and Casatrovilli are sidelined with injuries.
Highlighted Player (Gianluca Lapadula):
Gianluca Lapadula, also known as Lapagol, due to his goalscoring abilities, was born in Turin and started his career at Juventus youth team, but was released because he wasn’t doing well in his studies. After the departure with Juventus, Lapadula perfected his goalscoring skills in lower Italian leagues and even spent one year in NK Gorica, Slovenia.
During his spell in Ravenna, he managed to finish the season 2012/13 as the top scorer in the group, netting 24 goals in the process. For a long period of time, the 28-year-old was Parma’s player, but he went on loans often, and, after Parma went bankrupt, Lapagol moved to Pescara. With 30 goals in 43 appearances, the striker caught the eye of Serie A giant Milan. He netted his first goal for the Rossoneri only three minutes after he came on as a substitute.
The following season Lapagol became the striker of Genoa. Even though he was called to play for Peru, the Genoa hitman decided to represent Italy, getting his first call to the senior squad in November 2016. However, he never made an official appearance for Italy, since he only played an unofficial friendly against San Marino, when he scored a hat-trick.
Highlighted Team (Fiorentina):
