Week 12 brings us a match on Oct 30th, where Spezia will play host to Fiorentina in a clash of these two evenly matched Serie A teams. The game day is forecasted to be a cloudy and cool day, with daytime temperatures of only 18 degrees, a perfect day for football. In their last match, 16th placed Spezia, recorded a 0-1 loss against Salernitana. Pasquale Mazzocchi scored the first goal for Salernitana in the 48th minute, and that single goal was all that was necessary as neither team could manage any more scoring In the end, Spezia was frustrated by Salernitana’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Salernitana ended the match with the shutout victory. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 6 points in their last 10 matches, while 14th placed Fiorentina is fresh off their 3-4 loss against Inter. Nicolò Barella struck first for Inter in the 2nd minute on a feed from Lautaro Martínez, then Lautaro Martínez added another in the 15th minute. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having earned only 7 points in their last 10 matches.
This will be the first match for these two teams against eachother this season. Last season Fiorentina won the head to head battle with 2 wins.
Jonathan Ikoné has been the most effective weapon for Fiorentina lately. The French midfielder has netted two goals in his last 5 matches. Spezia’s most prolific scorer has been David Strelec. He has netted 2 goals over the last five matches.
