Prediction: 2-1
Fiorentina
Stadio Alberto Picco will host Monday’s Serie A game between Spezia and Fiorentina, the two teams with entirely different ambitions in the remainder of the season. Spezia are eager to secure the elite division survival, while the Viola are eyeing a place in European competitions. Following three consecutive league wins, the Bianconeri shared the spoils with Salernitana at the weekend, and they are surely capable of beating Vlahovic-less visitors.
The Serbia international was sorely missed in a 3-0 loss to Lazio, and, no doubt, the club chiefs will regret for selling the top scorer in the January transfer window. All Bastoni, Kovalenko, and Leo’ Sena are sidelined with injuries for the home team, while Bonaventura and Torreira are banned for the visiting side. In the first half of the season Fiorentina rolled over Spezia at Stadio Artemio Franchi, meaning that the hosts are hungry for revenge.
