Udinese against Fiorentina: Preview – Viola Nation

This is exactly here. The highlight of a season that was only typical insofar as the bikes expired in the slightest way; Did you even know that there was a bike there? I certainly didn’t do it. In short, one last game separates Fiorentina and Europe. One last game separates us from another summer full of fruitless revision and helpless projection.

So we continue while the viola travels north and east to take over Udinese. All you can do is to win here and hope that Lecce Lazio will hit. This combination of results and only this combination of results catapulates Fiorentina to the conference league. The irony of relying on a Panataleo Corvino team should be lost for anyone, but there are so many plot lines that can search out of it. The match will be continued Sunday, May 25th, 2025at 6:45 p.m. PM GMT/2:45 p.m. ESTin the Stadio Friuli in Udine. It is Udine, so it’s cooler than somewhere else in Italy, but at least the thunderstorms should be ended by the kickoff.

Three things you should pay attention to

1. And now his watch is over. If we approach the summer transmission window, we will learn the fate of about half of this loan-oriented Fiorentina squad. We can point out the advantages and disadvantages of keeping all of these boys, but we also remember that this saves real life and no football manager. We speak that people have to move and their families while dealing with career uncertainty. This is stressful.

At least some of Yacine Adli, Edoardo Bove, Danilo Cataldi, Andrea Colpani, Nicolò Fagioli, Michael Foloruns, Albert Guðmundsson and Nicolò Zaniolo make their final viola appearances, while their loan movements run out this summer. Guys associated with transmissions – Lucas Beltrán, Pietro Comuzzo, David de Gea, Dodô, Moise Kean – are in the same boat. Maybe last time let’s be fun to watch you and your quirks and your weaknesses and all the things that make you more interesting single players than vectors of team wins or losses. It could be the last time.

2. What is in the Mystery Box. In this case, the Mystery Box is Raffaele Palladinos Noggin. In particular, what will he do with his list? After having trotted a 4-5-1 with 6 defenders against Bologna last week, which was specially developed to neutralize the Oscar Mayers, will he return to the usual 3-5-2 in the final? Or did he spend the whole week of training something crazy to combat Udinese, a team that differs very stylistically from the Rossoblu?

Assuming the most likely result (Fiorentina is missing in Europe), this will be an insight into the next season if the Mister usually has a full week between the games to prepare a scheme unique for each opponent instead of a single day. These expanded samples completely change the performance of a team and Palladino did not use most of the year. If his approach differs radically from the last week and the last few months, this could mean that it will be full tactical chameleon for 2025-2026, which makes every football hipster get upset and observe what exactly cooks in Florence.

3. Fuck it, just enjoy the game, man. The result here is no longer in the hands. It is always outside the hands because we are losers on the Internet, not players or coaches or scouts or employees. We do not beat people with our opinion because they are objectively correct, but because we are a feeling of control over something that we definitely have no control over. It is a fairly fundamental coping mechanism that we all get involved. It is fine and normal human behavior that does an interesting sports discourse, which is why we all hang around here.

For this last game of the season, however, it is even more outside of our hands than usual. Even if we had the ability to manifest positive results from Fiorentina – this season and every season before you have no, we don’t have this ability – it is as much as for the viola for Lazio and Lecce. So if the most inevitable, stupidest possible result occurs, let us all be angry or disappointed or whatever, but also that we have no say in how to do this. We are not topics or even objects in this scenario. We are observers, each of us as helpless and unsuspecting like the others, and no amount of screaming will change.

Possible lists

Made shared with my tactics

Ted’s memorial blind department

The bookmakers reject Fiorentina, but are not too happy about it. On the one hand, Fiorentina is the better team to play with more. On the other hand, Udinese has at home and has recently worried the viola in Friuli, shared the last 4 meetings and beat the Viola 1: 2 in Florence in December. The trip to Udine always fulfills me with fear, so it is difficult to be too safe.

Making a prediction is even more difficult. What is mentally harmful to Fiorentina fans? A flat performance combined with a surprising Lecce victory? Or a highly competitive victory here in combination with Lazio, which achieves late to the level against Salentini? My money is on the latter, so I call for a hard 1-2 victory to avenge the defeat at the beginning of this year. Elch and Goose feel like the right combination to close the season, and Moise Kean and Robin Gosens to score for the good ones, with Lorenzo Lucca for the hosts.

Forza viola!
