Fiorentina vs Benevento Preview
Fiorentina are in mourning of their club captain Davide Astori following his passing on Sunday. This will be the sides first outing on the pitch after last weekends game against Udinese was postponed and it will no doubt be an emotional one for Stefano Pioli’s side and fans across the world.
Football may not be the main priority at the moment for the people of Florence or the squad but they will want to pay tribute to their captain by hopefully sealing a win on Sunday.
Given recent events, current form may not play a big part in the result of this game. Fiorentina have picked up two wins and a draw from their last four games but their minds may well be elsewhere in their first game without Astori who was an influential part of Serie A and Italian football.
Benevento are rock-bottom of Serie A having picked up just 10 points all season. They’re looking set to return to Serie B and are going to find it tough to get anything out of the game on Sunday. Roberto De Zerbi will be sure his players respect the current situation in Florence but his side haven’t found it easy at all on their travels this season and have suffered 13 straight defeats on the road, picking up zero points.
Luca Antei and Marco D’Alessandro are out injured for Benevento while Sandro will be assessed closer to kick-off to see if he has shaken off a muscular injury. Fabio Lucioni and Nicolas Viola are both serving suspensions and will not be present.

Fiorentina vs Benevento Predictions
Sunday’s fixture is set to be an emotional one and Fiorentina’s main focus will be on to honour their captain rather than the outcome of the match. However, Fiorentina are rightly favourites here. The visitors haven’t managed to pick up a single point on the road this season and have failed to score in 9 of their 13 matches away from home. It’s hard to see Benevento taking all three points and Fiorentina will be hoping to take something positive from the day with a win at Stadio Artemio Franchi. We’re expecting more misery for Benevento with Fiorentina winning to nil.
