"Since that late‑September stalemate, Fiorentina have spent the majority of the campaign inside the relegation zone, and the threat of going down remains very real. Paolo Vanoli has certainly overseen improvement since taking charge, yet defensive instability continues to plague his team: they have kept only one clean sheet in their last 20 league matches. Three points adrift of safety with 13 games left, Fiorentina did manage to claim a vital victory last weekend against high‑flying Como."
"The Viola backed that up on Thursday evening with a commanding 3-0 win away to Jagiellonia Białystok in the UEFA Conference League playoff round. Second‑half finishes from Luca Ranieri, Rolando Mandragora and Roberto Piccoli put one foot firmly into the last 16 and, crucially, secured back‑to-back wins for the first time this season-achieved in freezing conditions and with significant rotation."
Fiorentina host Pisa in a critical Tuscan relegation clash as Fiorentina seek to climb out of the drop zone and Pisa face a bleak return to the top flight. Fiorentina have spent much of the season inside the relegation zone and remain three points adrift of safety with 13 matches left. Paolo Vanoli has overseen some improvement but defensive instability persists, with only one clean sheet in the last 20 league matches. Fiorentina secured consecutive wins against Como and Jagiellonia Białystok, including a 3-0 away victory featuring goals from Luca Ranieri, Rolando Mandragora and Roberto Piccoli. Home form at the Franchi has been poor, with just two league wins from 12 matches.
