Venezia VS Fiorentina

Venice, as a newly-promoted team, is in a tough spot. They started the league with three consecutive defeats and are deep in the relegation zone. With four straight losses in all competitions, their morale is low. However, at home, they show good resilience. They adopt a three - centre - back system, creating threats through wing attacks, physical confrontations, and set - pieces. But the team is facing serious mid - field and back - line injuries. Many centre - backs also had a three - game winless start. In three rounds, they only scored 1 goal while conceding 9, indicating a total imbalance in both attack and defence. Recently, the head coach was sacked, and Vanoli has returned for his first coaching appearance. Due to limited preparation time, the team's lineup lacks proper cohesion. The back - line is hit by both injuries and suspensions, with key defenders missing, leaving huge gaps in defence. The midfield core, Atta, is expected to return, which will improve the midfield organization to some extent. But the team's finishing efficiency in attack remains low, and their away performance is poor. They urgently need points to stop the losing streak. Both teams are in the relegation zone, so the desire to grab points and survive is extremely strong. Historically, Venice has a good win - rate against Florence at home. Also, both teams have obvious defensive flaws, suggesting the possibility of both sides scoring goals in this match.
