Prediction: 1-2
Fiorentina
Venezia play host to Fiorentina at their Stadio Pierluigi Penzo in the Serie A round 8. The newcomers aim to escape the danger zone, while the Viola are eager to retain their spot in top five. Venezia head into Monday’s clash following back-to-back draws with Torino and Cagliari, but they will have a much bigger fish to fry against Viola. Fiorentina continue to rely on Atletico Madrid target Dusan Vlahovic, who scored the winner for Serbia in the World Cup qualifier against Luxembourg.
The Viola are more of a team than I Lagunari, and we predict that the visitors are going to prove their worth on the field. Goalkeeper Luca Lezzerini should be the only absentee in the home team, while all Milenkovic, Castrovilli, and Saponara are rated doubtful for the visitors. Fiorentina goalkeeper Dragowski is out of contention through injury.
Highlighted Player (Christian Kouame):
Christian Kouame is an Ivory Coast international who has been playing for Serie A side Genoa since 2018. Kouame started his youth career at Prato and after ending his loan spells with the likes of Sassuolo and Inter, he returned to Stadio Lungobisenzio.
The 185-cm-tall forward made his professional debut with Prato on September 6, 2015 in a 2-1 loss to Pisa. Christian Kouame started the match, but he was replaced by Alberto Aladje after 66 minutes. The Genoa attacker, though, has yet to earn a call-up for the Ivory Coast national team. He has two caps for the Ivory Coast U23 team, but he is still eyeing his senior team debut.
His main position is centre-forward, but he is used as both left and right winger as well. The Genoa footballer was born in Abijan on December 6, 1997 and he has a contract with the Rossoblu until June 30, 2023.
