Prediction for the Serie A match which will take place on February 28. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the team conditions! Several betting options are available.

Fiorentina

The Violets failed in the match of the last round. Away the team met with one of the main outsiders of the championship Verona and managed to lose. In the first half, Fiorentina played better than the opponent, but failed to realize their momentum, and in the second half gave up the initiative and eventually conceded the decisive goal in the end - 0:1.

This was the third consecutive defeat for the team from Florence. Before the unsuccessful trip to Verona, Florentine failed on their own field with Como (0:2), and away lost to Inter (1:2). In the Serie A standings Fiorentina is currently sixth, but will lose this position after the face-to-face meeting between Bologna and Milan, which will end after the publication of this text.

It should also be recalled that next week they will have to start in the playoffs of the Conference League. On March 6, in the first game of the round of 16, Fiorentina will meet Panathinaikos in Greece.

Lecce

The Giallorossi played their previous match exactly a week ago - last Friday Marco Giampaolo's team hosted Udinese. The opponent Lecce seized the initiative from the beginning and at the end of the first half got the right to a penalty, which was realized by Lorenzo Lucca. There were no goals scored in the second half, and the match ended in a 0:1 defeat for Lecce.

Prior to this setback, Lecce had produced a winless streak of three consecutive matches - 0:0 draws with Bologna and Monza, and a 3:1 win over Parma. Thanks to this stretch, the Giallorossi are currently out of the relegation zone - in 16th place in the standings, three points ahead of the bottom three.
