Fiorentina-Udinesea match valid for the 17th matchday of Serie A 2024/25, will be played on Monday 23 December at 6.30 pm at the Artemio Franchi stadium in Florence. The last six championship matches between the two teams have seen a fair balance: three successes for the Viola, two for the Friulians and a draw (HERE THE PRECEDENTS). Let's see how the teams arrive
The Viola are coming off two less than exciting outings. The second half in Bologna showed the tiredness of this team, and the Conference trip to Portugal confirmed it. Now Palladino's team is called to react, and the coach from Campania relies on his best men. Recovered Cataldiwill return to the midfield with Adli. In front of Thin can install Beltran for a spot on the left. The pair are back as starters Gudmundsson–Kean at the expense of Beltran. Ready a round of rest for Comuzzocon Fourth favorite.
Udinese is trying to put the defeat in the Italian Cup against Inter behind them, being able to count on Sanchez being available again. It is difficult to imagine his presence from the first minute, but the Chilean is officially recovered, as is Lovric, who should return to the field after the injury suffered against Napoli but remains in doubt from 1' or less. The 3-5-2 formation is likely to be confirmed, with Sava between the posts, Kristensen, Bijol and Giannetti in defence. Ehizibue and Zemura will act on the flanks, while Lovric, Karlstrom and Ekkelenkamp will play in the middle. In attack, the Thauvin-Lucca tandem. What if Sanchez was fit? So 3-4-2-1 with one less midfielder, perhaps even during the match in progress.
