Fiorentina will be looking to bounce back with a win
Fiorentina will be looking to bounce back with a win

Salernitana host Fiorentina at the Stadio Arechi in Serie A on Sunday, with both sides having contrasting seasons so far.

Salernitana are currently 18th in the league, six points away from safety. Divide Nicola's side snapped their three-game losing streak and have won their last two matches on the trot. They will hope to take that momentum into the game against Fiorentina on Sunday.

Fiorentina, on the other hand, are currently sixth in the league, with a win taking them to fifth. Vincenzo Italiano's side's six-game unbeaten run came to an end at the hands of Juventus in the Coppa Italia in midweek. They will look to bounce back with a win against Salernitana on Sunday.

Both sides will want to win the game on Sunday and that should make for an interesting contest.


Salernitana vs Fiorentina Head-to-Head

This will only be the second time that the two sides have faced each other in almost two decades. Fiorentina comprehensively beat Salernitana 4-0 in the reverse fixture earlier this season. Goals from Giacomo Bonaventura, Youssef Maleh and a brace from Dusan Vlahovic were enough to secure the win on the night.
