AC Milan home table position: 6

Fiorentina away table position: 9

with this week announcement that Leonardo will no longer be with AC Milan after this season it would be interesting to see how the team performs against Fiorentina this Saturday.

Milan is showing a very poor form with only one victory in the last 7 matches in the Serie A and with 2 losses in the last 2 played. The team is currently on the third spot, a position they will most likely keep until the end of the season as their major threat, Sampdoria sits 4 points behind.

Their home statistic is way to week for a tournament like the Serie A and especially for a team with their claims as Milan won 10 and ended 5 in draws in all 17 played, a good side to the story being the 33 goals scored but a weak defense as the 20 conceded shows.

Fiorentina is also struggling in the competition with only one victory in the last 6 matches played and falling dramatically in the charts to the current 10th spot with a total of just 46 points.

Their last away victory dates back to mid March with a 1-3 final score against Napoli, from that point on it’s all been down hill managing only one point in the last 3 played and bringing the away statistic to 4 victories and 5 draws in 17 played with a negative goal ratio of 20 scored and 24 conceded.

My pick: AC Milan to win

Table positions: Fiorentina -10, Juventus -5

Fiorentina home table position: 12

Juventus away table position: 3

Only 2 matches taking place in the Italian Serie A this Saturday and this clash between Fiorentina and Juventus is certainly a game of interest as both teams need all 3 points.

Fiorentina is in a downward spiral in terms of results, out of the Champions League they are struggling in the domestic league and now felt on the 10th spot with a total of 35 points and only one victory in the last 8 matches played.

Their recent performances has certainly taken it’s token on the team’s statistic and on home ground they are left with 7 victories one draw and no less than 5 lost showing a very weak goal ratio of 17 scored and 12 conceded in all 13 played.

Juventus is still in the books for a place in next season’s Champions League with their direct adversaries Palermo only 2 points above them after the direct match between the 2 last week.

Their results improved slightly recently and the team won 2 out of the past 3 matches in the Serie A. Juventus looks strong in away matches as they have won 6 and ended 2 in draws in 12 played so far with a modest goal ratio of 19 scored and 16 conceded.

My pick:  Juventus to win

A duel between 2 struggling teams in the Italian Serie A as bottom table Lazio take on Fiorentina this Saturday with both teams in desperate need of points.

Lazio had a disastrous season so far and the team’s results have not improved lately with only one victory in the last 7 played in the domestic league and with a current total of joust 25 points they sit only 2 above the relegation zone.

As expected the team has one of the poorest statistic of all involved in the competition, this being the home pitch record as well with only 3 victories and 4 draws in 11 played and a goal ratio to match with 11 scored and 12 conceded.

Fiorentina had a great start in the new year but lost a lot of ground lately, with top scorer Adrian Mutu suspended the team entered a phase in witch they encountered only strong teams and lost a lot of points. As Lazio they have only one victory in the last 7 matches played but nonetheless their form is improving and the last part of the season may bring much needed points.

They are currently on the 10th spot of the table with a total of 32 points, with 2 followers who can take their place in case of a loss or draw. No much hope for them if we consider the away statistic of 3 victories and 3 draws in 12 played and a negative goal ratio of 14 scored and 18 conceded.

My pick:  Fiorentina to win

Fiorentina last 3 away matches:

Second day of the Champions League and it seems like Bayern Munchen may have the easiest task of all teams still involved as they welcome a struggling Fiorentina to the Alianz Arena.

Bayern Munchen is flying high with a string of victories that seems endless both in the German Bundesliga and also in the DFB Pokal. Trailing leaders ayer Leverkusen in the domestic league only due to a poorer goal ratio, the team is set to win the championship title and please the crowds with performances in the Champions League.

No less than 12 consecutive victories for the German giants, the last time they lost any points was late November in a 1-1 draw against rivals Leverkusen. The same story in home matches where they reached 7 consecutive victories and look unbeatable on their pitch.

Fiorentina may be the weakest team to gain access to this phase of the competition, surrounded by European football giants, the small Italian team will consider this one of their greatest performances.

No victories for them in the last 5 matches played, 4 in the Serie A and one in the Cup with a very important loss to their side as striker Adrian Mutu, who impressed at the start of the year,  is suspended from all competitions. Nonetheless we have to remember that Fiorentina finished top of group E, 2 points in front of Lyon and leaving Liverpool in the Europa League.

My tip: Bayern Munchen

Bari last 5 league matches: 

Bari last 3 away matches:

Table positions: Fiorentina -7, Bari -8

Fiorentina home table position: 11

Bari away table position: 12

Both Fiorentina and Bari share the same amount of points in the
Italian Serie A table and are separated only by the goal ratio witch
favors the home side.

Thrashing last spot holders Siena, 1-5 in the first game of the year,
Fiorentina is starting this second part of the championships with high
hope of advancing in the table and achieving their goal of another
Champions League spot.

They look very strong in front of the home crowd with a statistic
showing 5 victories and one draw in 8 played and a +6 goal ratio with 11
scored and only 5 conceded.

Bari is the surprise of this season, the newly promoted team worked
it’s way up the table and could make a huge surprise if they keep this
on and grab a spot for an European competition in the summer.

Their good position is largely due to the good form showed on home
ground as in away matches they managed only one victory so far and no
less than 4 matches ended in draws.

My pick: Fiorentina to win
