LAST MEETING
November 13, 2010: Fiorentina 1-0 Cesena
Fiorentina won the reverse fixture at home. Italy international striker Alberto Gilardino’s goal a minute before the hour mark proved to be the difference between the two teams.
PROBABLE LINE-UPS
Cesena: Antonioli; Ceccarelli, Pellegrino, Von Bergen, Santon; Sammarco, Colucci, Parolo; Giaccherini, Jimenez; Bogdani
Fiorentina: Boruc; De Silvestri, Gamberini, Natali, Pasqual; Santana, Donadel, Vargas; Montolivo; Gilardino, Mutu
Prediction
Fiorentina have grown in confidence and have also won away from home in the league. A win in Cesena is not out of question and the Viola could just about nick maximum points.
Cesena 1-2 Fiorentina
