-----------------------------

Venezia and Fiorentina will battle on Friday as both sides chase their first Serie A points of the season. Fiorentina's poor start has already led to a coaching change, while Venezia sit just above them on goal difference.

Team Analysis:

Fiorentina have dismissed Fabio Grosso after a disastrous start to the season, bringing back Paolo Vanoli to steady a side that has lost all three league games without scoring. Venezia are also still searching for their first points after three defeats, leaving both teams desperate for a turnaround in Friday's Serie A clash.

Player Situation:

Venezia will be without several injured players, while Toma Basic and Armel Bella-Kotchap remain doubts ahead of the clash with Fiorentina. Fiorentina have only Fabiano Parisi ruled out, with Beto and Mateo Pellegrino competing for a starting role in attack under returning coach Paolo Vanoli.

Result Prediction:

With both Venezia and Fiorentina still without a point, Friday's clash promises to be a tense battle between two struggling sides. Fiorentina's stronger attack could give Paolo Vanoli's team the edge despite both defenses looking vulnerable.

Predicted Result: Venezia 1-2 Fiorentina.
