Fiorentina 8/13 to beat SPAL and over 1.5 goals in Sunday’s Serie A matchup

Posted August 1st, 2020 | By: Tom Dunstan

Competition: Serie A

Market: Fiorentina win and over 1.5 goals

Odds: 8/13 @ 888sport

Hoping to end their season on a high this weekend, Fironetina will face off against an already-relegated SPAL from behind closed doors on Sunday evening.

Starting with the hosts, enduring what has been a torrid campaign throughout the 2019/2020 season, SPAL have long since relinquished their Serie A status. In their 37 top-flight matches this year, they have recorded five wins, five draws, and 27 defeats, scoring 26 and conceding 74 in return. Along with collecting just 20 points this year and four points adrift at the foot of the table heading into their final contest, it should also be noted that SPAL hold the third-worst defensive record in the division. As for their previous run of results, Sunday’s hosts have lost six of their last seven Serie A matchups and find themselves in the midst of an 11-match winless run, collecting just two draws and nine defeats. It is also worth highlighting that SPAL have conceded over 1.5 goals in nine of their last 10 appearances.

As for the visitors, enjoying what has been an eye-catching end to this year’s Serie A campaign, Fiorentina sit in pole position to secure a top-10 finish this season. In their 37 top-flight matches this year, they have recorded 11 wins, 13 draws, and 13 defeats, scoring 48 and conceding 47 in return. Collecting a points tally of 46, the Purples open this weekend’s fixtures sat in 10th, with just their goal difference keeping them in the top half of the standings. As for their previous run of results, the Purples have lost just one of their last eight Serie A contests and have also lost just one of their last four contests on the road. Given the huge gulf in class between the two sides at the back end of the year, we’re backing a comfortable victory for Fiorentina this weekend.
