Fiorentina secured their first league win of the season in week 16, beating Udinese 5-1. M. Kean scored two goals. If Okoye hadn't received a red card in the 7th minute for denying a clear goal-scoring opportunity, we wouldn't be talking about a Fiorentina victory today. Those watching the match must have thought they were watching a Dutch league game, not an Italian one. A total of six goals were scored, and four shots hit the post, three of which were Fiorentina shots. The away game against Parma on December 27th is a crucial match, and I'm already curious to see the result.

It was a great victory of 5-1 by Fiorentina, yet the distinctive role in the game was played by the early red card of Okoye. When Udinese were brought down to ten men, Fiorentina dominated the game and struck at will though Kean pulled off two goals. The game being scored highly was not characteristic of Serie A almost as though it was a Dutch game. The true question however is consistency. The match against Parma which is a away game will be a key test to see whether Fiorentina can put a continuation to this performance or it was a one-time occasion.

Parma is one of clubs in the relegation competition with Fiorentina so if Fiorentina can beat this direct competitor, it will not only bring 3 more points to Fiorentina but also helping them reduce disadvantage with Parma. It will be another good foundation for Fiorentina in their fight for survival and their appearance in Serie A next season. Parma are not too strong and is quite similar with Fiorentina by having bad results in Serie A 2025 - 2026 season so far.

Finally, Fiorentina won a first time in Serie A this season but they even made it more impressively by a big win against Udinese. This win is not yet enough to lift Fiorentina out of a last rank of the league but it actually turns their crisis to possibly a better trend. They still need some more wins in order to rank up higher and exit the relegation zone and at the moment, Fiorentina should only focus on themselves and try to beat opponents in coming matches.

They don't have to mind about other clubs around the relegation zone as they can open chance of improving rank by playing better, and getting better results by themselves. It's main and most important condition, not how good or bad performances of the other clubs and competitors in relegation zone.

[Jostern]

This was a lucky day for Fiorentina but it is not enough to save them from the relegation that lays ahead, they will probably need some many more lucky days as this to be able  to get out of the relegation ahead of them which does not seem like they will gwt any soon again. They had a landslide victory that still kept them at the bottom of the table, only that this may now be their future consolation that they had some brilliance at a time.

Fiorentina's goal-fest as the home team against Udinese was truly surprising, as Udinese and Fiorentina are currently quite far apart in the standings. Some thought Fiorentina would lose again, but the opposite happened, and it was a surprising result, as the goal tally was quite high for a team at the bottom of the table. I hope Fiorentina can pull off more upsets like this throughout the remainder of the season to help them escape the relegation zone and remain competitive in Serie A next season.

It was indeed surprising, and nobody really expected that from Fiorentina, I think they showed why they are a team that knows all of this situations, but they do not sit in a good position in the Italian League which means a win sometimes might just be worthless.

AS Roma seems to be playing very badly in recent games and their performance level seems to also have dropped significantly, and I really can’t say that they have so many injuries but I think it’s all about them going into the winter transfer market to sigh some new players, else there title hopes will absolutely be over if they don’t continue producing a good Performance.

[stompix]

This one was weird...
Ok, Udinese played in 10 from the 8th minute, that makes the result less outrageous but..
Why was Fiorentina, a team with no wins to date, sent that much of a favorite?


I'm pretty sure the bookies wouldn't have been able to see in their crystal globe what will happen in the early few minutes...or ...would they

After going through 16 matches, Fiorentina finally got a win, this is the first win of the season, it is really too late, and I will not overreact to this and I also do not think that Fiorentina has recovered from its slump because I think this is a lucky win for Fiorentina because Udinese got a red card early in the match so that it can allow Fiorentina to play more freely, score a lot and get its first win.

There is nothing to be surprised about the outcome of the game between Fiorentina and Udinese. The red card against Maduka Okoye came too early. And there are clubs that cannot be destabilized with one man deficit. Udinese which beat Napoli last week, had to concede so many goals because they lost control of the game after the goalkeeper got a straight red card.

Gian Piero Gasperini is not doing badly with Roma; they are fourth on the table. In the last game, they met a better side. Juventus would have scored more goals because Roma showed little opposition. The visitor created fewer chances and deserved to lose.

I predict that Fiorentina's victory is the beginning of their comeback to improve their situation so that they can remain in Serie A for the next season.
Shortly before the score ended 5-1, I saw that Fiorentina easily scored 3 goals against Udinese in a relatively short period of time, going from 1-0 to 3-0.

Why do I consider this an important victory for Fiorentina? Because this win will serve as a starting point for de Gea to accumulate 15 points and beyond, as they currently have only 9 points.

[Velvet78]

Finally Fiorentina have managed to get their first win. It took them 16 games though.    A 5-1 win against Udinese... If it weren't for that red card in the first minutes already I wonder what kind of a game we were going to watch.

Because Udinese started the game better until then. Anyways, this win doesn't carry Fiorentina to any position above maybe but it is a start at least. The players needed this kind of a boost. But I'm still worried about their relegation probability.

Roma conceded two goals in a match for the first time since May, losing 2-1 to Juventus.
Juventus dominated the match, creating numerous scoring opportunities but managing to score two goals.
With the top six teams in the league playing in Saudi Arabia for the Super Cup, the Juventus-Roma match was the most noteworthy game of the week.
With this victory, Juventus reached 29 points and moved up to 5th place behind Roma.

Few weeks back, AS Roma was title contender but in last 4 games, they are having 3 loses, these defeats set them back, now they are having 3 points difference from leaders Inter Milan, but they have one match in hand, their defeat against Juventus increases their problems. As of now they are having just 1 point difference.

Still 22 rounds remaining in this season, while things are not easy to predict about which team is going to be staying in top ranks but due to recent few results, it's going to be interesting. Inter Milan going to visit Atlanta while the other teams have easy games. This will make some differences but Inter Milan is having good combination of team squad, and they are also able to make things favourable due to their consistency.

[execijutiere]

Cagliari drew 2-2 at home against Pisa. Pisa, who had been losing consistently in recent weeks, managed to put a stop to that run at least in this away game. Despite taking the lead with a penalty goal in the final minutes of the first half, they conceded two goals in the second half and fell behind 2-1. Pisa managed to secure a draw in this away game with Moreo's goal in the final minutes, raising their points total to 11.
Sassuolo lost at home to Torino. Torino had the more effective chances in the match and scored their goal from a penalty. Torino managed to return from this difficult away game with three points thanks to Vlasic's goal, raising their points total to 20. Both teams have a chance to finish in the top six and will want to take advantage of this, but we can say that they are weaker than their rivals in terms of squad quality.

Fiorentina's victory over Udinese was somewhat surprising, and perhaps Udinese's red card was a deciding factor, as it made it difficult for Udinese to match their number of men. Fiorentina's level of play was also quite good in that match, and they were able to play with greater accuracy. We hope this will be a good start for Fiorentina to rise, so that they can get out of the slump and most importantly get out of the relegation zone.

Roma's defeat against Juventus also shows the team's inconsistent form. I saw Roma not playing at their best, so Juventus was able to capitalize on that to secure a win over them. This is why when a team isn't playing at their best, they often fail to win, even when they have good chances to do so.

Fiorentina had a better advantage of winning the game immediately, after the red card. It takes a lot of efforts and quality for a team on short one to win their opponents with a complete squad. Fiorentina performance this season is not impressive compared to last two seasons. If not, Pisa isn't a club to stop Fiorentina from winning them.

[changaa]

Roma have an experienced coach. The squad is not too weak either. Their biggest weakness is their attack. If they can add an experienced  striker to the squad , then there is no doubt that roma's performance will be stronger. If they can  qualify for the champions league , maybe next season Roma management will  give gasperini a big fund to buy players.

Roma has a great coach, I've always liked him and honestly i would have liked to see him at Milan.
Not that i dislike Massimiliano Allegri, after all he's a good coach too, even if i don't like the style of play he gives his teams. Obviously we are talking about personal tastes

[martinom]

Napoli is competing with Milan, Inter, and Roma in the standings. If they want to celebrate like last season, they must try to maintain their consistency throughout the season. But it seems that this situation is not only happening to Napoli; the competing teams in the Serie A standings are experiencing the same thing. So it will be quite difficult to predict which team will win the trophy at the end of the season.

This year, i think if they win, they'll celebrate even more because this year they'll have defeated not one, but three strong teams fighting for the title. i think this will be even more satisfying than last year, if they win, of course.
I think they can do

[pewboy]

It was a great victory of 5-1 by Fiorentina, yet the distinctive role in the game was played by the early red card of Okoye.

The first victory, even if it was beautiful, was not enough to save ourselves.
We need more victories and we need the other half of the season played well and not like they have played up to now.
At the moment, given the way they've played, I'm sorry to say, they deserve to be in Serie B.
If anything changes, I'll be the first to say they deserve salvation.

[GiftedMAN]

You're right, Gian Piero Gasperini is a good coach maybe not great as you said but he's proved to be good at Atalanta, he's currently doing fine at Roma and gradually making them a tough team again. Yeah I believe he'll be a good coach at Milan based on the resource at his disposal to sign quality players and manage them well, however Milan is not done with Allegri yet since he's doing good as well.

Juventus did not dominate the match and won. We saw good performances from both teams. Juve players had 12 shots in the entire match and had 44% ball possession. On the other hand, Roma players managed to make  15 shots and had 56% ball possession. But juventus managed to take a 2-0 lead in the 70th minute. Roma also scored their only goal in the 75 th minute. It was very difficult to score 2 goals against juventus after being 2  goals behind. And in the end, Roma lost 2-1. Juventus are still trying to enter the champions league zone.

If Fiorentina continues to play like this, I'd definitely place them in the safety zone of the league and why not, they could even do something better. Right now these guys are trying hard, and I think the team is there to do well, if they continue like this they can do big step ahead

Juventus under Spalletti's coaching seems to have improved slightly. Spalletti seems to be more suited to coaching a Serie A club than a national team. I think Spalletti just needs more time at Juventus and then he might be able to bring Juventus back to its peak performance.

AS Roma played just as well as Juventus, but they didn't have a striker sharp enough to capitalize on the opportunities they had. Gasperini has made this team quite strong, but its weakness is its inability to finish attacks. This team always wastes too many opportunities, but it's only natural that Juventus won that match. However, I admire Juventus' attack, which was able to break through AS Roma's solid defense. In fact, we saw Juventus repeatedly trouble Roma's defense with relative ease. Meanwhile, Roma was also able to trouble Juventus' defense, but unfortunately, they couldn't finish their attacks with goals. Juventus now has the opportunity to climb back to 4th place with a narrow point difference.
