Prediction: 1-1
Inter
All eyes will be on Stadio Artemio Franchi when Fiorentina and Inter square off against each other in a highly-anticipated Serie A derby. The Viola are enjoying a very successful season, with the team eyeing their eighth consecutive league win, but Sunday’s clash will be anything but a walk in the park for Raffaele Palladino’s troops. Midfielder Amir Richardson remains on the sidelines with a shin injury, while defender Cristiano Biraghi faces race against the clock to be fit for the Inter game.
The reigning champions, on the other hand, rolled over Verona 5-0 to put an extra pressure on league leaders Napoli, but they do not want to stop now. Simone Inzaghi’s men looked sharp offensively at the weekend and given Fiorentina’s attacking potential at home, both teams to score betting option should be considered. Both Benjamin Pavard and Francesco Acerbi are sidelined with injuries for the away team.
Highlighted Player (Hakan Calhanoglu):
Hakan Calhanoglu is another one in the long line of Turkish footballers who were born in Germany, so it is hardly surprising he came to prominence thanks to his performances in Bundesliga. The attacking midfielder with great vision and very good goalscoring record started his professional career at Karlsruher, scoring impressive 17 goals in 50 league outings to earn a move to Bundesliga side Hamburg.
The spell at Imtech Arena was merely a stepping stone for bigger things as 11 goals in his debut top flight campaign persuaded Bayer Leverkusen to splash nearly €15 million on his services. That proved a very good investment as Calhanoglu continued the rich vein of form, and it is now a matter of time before he joins one of European powerhouses.
The midfield maestro had a bright start to his career in the Turkey national team, scoring 5 goals in first 16 caps, and chances are he will become a leader for Milli Takim in the foreseeable future.
Highlighted Team (Fiorentina):
