The Serie A match between Frosinone and Fiorentina will take place at Stadio Benito Stirpe on Thursday at 10:00 pm IST.
Frosinone and Fiorentina, who are only separated by two points in the early Serie A standings, will face off at Stadio Benito Stirpe on Thursday night. Both teams find themselves in the top half of the table for Italy’s midweek round, and they both have the goal of solidifying their promising beginning to the season.
After an eventful Europa Conference League draw in Genk last Thursday, Fiorentina wasted no time and traveled to Udine for a Sunday Serie A match. They secured a second consecutive league victory by defeating Udinese with goals from Lucas Martinez Quarta and Giacomo Bonaventura, who sealed the win in stoppage time. This win, following a 4-0 loss to Inter before the international break, brought Fiorentina’s point total to 10 after five matches, their best start since 2015. Coach Vincenzo Italiano aims to maintain their momentum with upcoming matches against newly-promoted teams. Before facing Cagliari next Monday, Fiorentina heads to Frosinone’s Stadio Stirpe, where they have yet to win in top-flight matches but have drawn on both previous visits. With two wins in three away games this season, Italiano’s team hopes to continue their road success and secure another victory on Thursday.
Frosinone, promoted as Serie B champions, have impressively collected eight points in their first five Serie A matches. After a predictable defeat to Napoli on the opening day, they secured home wins against Atalanta and Sassuolo, netting six goals. Additionally, they managed to hold Udinese and Salernitana to draws on the road. Despite Simone Romagnoli’s opener in the Salernitana match, they couldn’t maintain their lead and settled for a draw. Frosinone now have a chance to win three consecutive home games in Serie A for only the second time, previously achieving this feat in 2015. This achievement would solidify their position as mid-table contenders rather than relegation candidates. The key to their success could lie with Napoli loanee Walid Cheddira, who scored 22 goals for Bari last season. However, upcoming matches against Fiorentina and Roma will put their resilience to the test.
Frosinone probable starting lineup: Turati, Oyono, Okoli, Romagnoli, Marchizza, Mazzitelli, Barrenechea, Garritano, Soule, Cheddira, Baez
Fiorentina probable starting lineup: Terracciano, Kayode, Milenkovic, Martinez Quarta, Biraghi, Arthur, Lopez, Kouame, Bonaventura, Sottil, Beltran
