Fiorentina take on high-flying Hellas Verona at the Stadio Artemio Franchi on Saturday in round 13 of the 2020-21 Serie A season. La Viola are struggling in 16th place, just three points above the relegation zone. Verona, in stark contrast, are seventh in the table, with 19 points from 12 games.After being handed a demoralising 3-0 defeat away to Atalanta, Fiorentina extended their winless run to four games, drawing 1-1 to the much-improved Sassuolo at home. Hamed Traore's 13th-minute opener for the visitors was cancelled out by Dusan Vlahovic's 35th-minute penalty, with both sides sharing the spoils.HIGHLIGHTS | 📺Watch all the best from #FiorentinaSassuolo ▶️ https://t.co/v3c7qerzKq#ForzaViola 💜 #Fiorentina pic.twitter.com/I0Mm5mM6cn— ACF Fiorentina English (@ACFFiorentinaEN) December 16, 2020The high of defeating Lazio by a 2-1 scoreline away from home quickly evaporated for Hellas Verona as they fell to a 2-1 defeat at home to a floundering Sampdoria.Two excellent strikes from Albin Ekdal and Valerio Verre gave the visitors a 2-0 lead, with Mattia Zaccagni's 70th-minute penalty giving Verona some hope. By the time Antonin Barak was sent off for a disgraceful stamp in injury time, the game was well and truly over.Il Verona ci prova fino all’ultimo e la riapre con #Zaccagni, ma passa la Samp di misura.

With games against Hellas Verona and Juventus to come, he may be left searching for another few games. Verona have plenty of injuries but are a well-drilled side, and Dusan Vlahovic may struggle to find the net.We expect a closely-fought contest that will end in a low-scoring draw.Prediction: Fiorentina 1-1 Hellas Verona.
