Fiorentina - Como team news and expert analysis
The Florence-based club reached the Europa League playoffs last season. However, it was only after a change in the dugout, with Vanoli in charge, that they managed to climb out of the relegation zone and finish 15th in the league. So, after a disastrous start under Grosso, Paolo was brought back to the post at the beginning of September. They immediately picked up victories in both Serie A and the cup, before drawing 1-1 with Napoli. In October, though, they lost 1-2 to Genoa.
The team from the "Giuseppe Sinigaglia" sensationally finished fourth in the previous Serie A campaign and came within a whisker of knocking Inter out in the cup semi-finals. Making their Champions League debut, the Italians crushed RB Leipzig 4-1. This week, however, they lost 2-3 to Feyenoord. They began the new Serie A season with ten points from their first four matches, only to suffer a surprise defeat to Frosinone. They also failed to score against Roma, settling for a goalless draw despite having a numerical advantage.
Mastantuono and his new teammates are averaging 1.17 goals scored and conceding 2.33 per match. Cesc's side look far more impressive, averaging 1.5 goals scored and just one conceded.
