Prediction: 1-1
Fiorentina
The postponed Serie A match between high-flying Sampdoria and Fiorentina takes place on Wednesday, with both sides looking to build on a promising start to the season and climb to second in the overall standings with three points from the midweek match. The Blucerchiati recovered well from the opening defeat to Udinese, going on to record 3-0 and 5-0 wins over Napoli and Frosinone, so there are no doubts they are high on confidence at the moment. Fiorentina, on the other hand, hammered Chievo 6-1 before narrowly defeating Udinese, but their winning run came to an end in Naples as they suffered a narrow loss. With both sides in excellent spirit after their respective bright starts, we expect to see an open game at Marassi, where the two evenly matched sides are likely to end up canceling each other out.
