Very interesting match in this evening between Fiorentina and Sampdoria,this match will be very important for both teams also.Fiorentina after lost in Sunday clash with Roma 3-1,this time must plays another very important game in Serie A.Before this season Viola bought Cesare Natali from Torino, Marco Marchionni from Juventus, Jose Castillo from Lecce and Manuel Da Costa from Sampdoria.They also bought Cristiano Zanetti from Juventus.Prandelli will use today 4-2-3-1 formation with lone striker Gilardino.This is very offensive tactics anyway,because behind him we will see Marco Marchionni and Adrian Mutu also offensive players.Marco Marchionni join Cesare Prandelli, former coach at Parma, and former teammates Sébastien Frey, Marco Donadel, Alberto Gilardino and Adrian Mutu.Marchionni signed a contract with ACF Fiorentina after having spent three years with Juventus F.C. He was part of a swap plus cash deal that saw midfielder Felipe Melo go the other way to Juventus.I think in this match this player and his form will be very important,because he really impress for me in match against Roma.Mario Alberto Santana will play also behind Gilardino in midfield.This is very offensive midfielder,ex-Palermo player,he is very good wingers.Zanetti,Montolivo will play also in midfield.So option with practically 4 offenisve players is a very risky here of course but for me this is a very good decision.This match will be quite different than last match with Roma so this tactics should be good this time,because Sampdoria is also very offensive team.This is also good choice for Prandelli tactics because this players they are very creativity.In defence we will see of course Dainelli,very good and impress in last matches,also we will see Pasqual,Gamberini and Comotto.This time on the bench Donadel,Gobbi,Jovetic so option with Jovetic,Donadel in second half also looks like very interesting.Montolivo he has two yellow cards so today must will play more safety,Comotto, Dainelli, Donadel, Gamberini, Pasquale and Zanetti they have only one yellow card actually.Neoquestore Florence,Francesco Tagliente said that this match will be also very risky for the Fiorentina fans,because Sampdoria fans don't like Viola fans, so a few days ago the delegate to the security of Fiorentina, Maurizio Francini, visited the stadium to monitor the work of removing the wire mesh of the industry guests.Sampdoria fans will be separated from the railway and the Curva Maratona only by glass partitions, allowing a better view of the race to all the fans who want to follow their team away.On Artemio Franchi Cesare Prandelli's men have won seven of last eight home games, the only defeat last May against AC Milan.The last four victories have all been 1- 0 by Fiorentina.The same result last season gave the three points to Viola in both games against the Sampdoria.Sampdoria won a single victory in the last 11 visits to the Artemio Franchi, 2-0 in September 2004 year.
Sampdoria they have four winning matches in Serie A in this season.They defeated Catania 1-2 in first round,after this they defeated Udinesse 3-1, they defeated Atalanta in Bergamo 0-1,and in last round they defeated Siena on Marassi 4-1.But this result is high,only because Gianluca Curci,keeper in Siena he had very tragic mistakes.Sampdoria is a really strong in this season.Luigi 'Gigi'Del Neri after two seasons in Bergamo he left to take over at Sampdoria.He doing a great job here,he prefereed 4-4-2 formation with Pazzini and Cassano in upfront.This duet is amazing in last games.In midfield will play  Angelo Palombo,Fernando Tissone back after suspension,Franco Semioli,ex-Viola player is injuries so Marco Padalino replacing him,Andrea Poli also won't play in this match because Daniele Mannini replacing him.So Del Neri change this formation and this is a good option for Viola,Mannini,Tissone this is not good players in midfield for Sampdoria.Accardi is also injuries,Fiorillo, Regini also won't play in this match.Defence line-up in Blucerchiati is of course strong.Today will play Marius Stankevicius,Daniele Gastaldello,Marco Rossi and Luciano Zauri,which he is a versatile and powerful full back. He is right footed but is particularly noted for some excellent performances at left back. He is also adept at playing as a holding midfielder.Zauri has won five appearances with the Italian national team.Zauri moved to Sampdoria on a loan deal with the option to buy out the player.Reto Ziegler,Nicola Pozzi,Claudio Bellucci,Andrea Poli on the bench.Gigi Del Neri in Sunday beating the new record in team of four consecutive victories.
For me Viola will be completly other team here,Sampdoria always they have big problems on Artemio Franchi and I think option for home win here is very tasty.
