On the program tuesday evening for the second round of Champions League:
Fiorentina - Liverpool, the team of
Cesare Prandelli against the one of
Rafael Benitez - a very important game for the italian team, Florence's Stadio Artemio Franchi is sold-out, for sure the atmosphere will be great.
Fiorentina has had a bad start to this season of Champions League, they lost their first game 0-1 in France against Lyon and now they are already under pressure. Liverpool has won the first game at
Anfield Road against the hungarian team of Debrecen, but this doesnt mean anything as Fiorentina will probably be a more difficult team to play.
Unfortunately for the italians
Alberto Gilardino will not play, he has to leave out two games after his red card against Lyon, the forward players will therefor be
Mutu and Jovetic.
Liverpool has won their last four games in the Premier League in an absolutely convincing manner (finishing with a 6-1 against Hull City with three goals by
Fernando Torres and they could have scored much more...) and they are on the third place (behind ManU and Chelsea). Fiorentina as well have won their last game (1-0 saturday evening in the tuscan derby against Livorno), but its obvious that they are in a difficult period right now and it wont be easy at all to get out of it this tuesday. Still with their home crowd pushing them Fiorentina might be able to surprise Liverpool.
Fiorentina - Liverpool
Stadio Artemio Franchi, Florence
Tuesday 29th of September 2009
kick off at 8:45 p.m.
In my opinion Liverpool is the huge favorite but Fiorentina will manage to get a point.
My tip is x, draw between Fiorentina and Liverpool, the
best odd is on
Betsson with
