In the 12th round of the Italian Serie A, Fiorentina and Juventus will face off on November 22, 2025. Under any circumstances, this is always one of the most intense football rivalries in the country.
The Florence side spent last season under Palladino’s leadership, managing to claim sixth place—edging out Lazio only on points equality (both with 65 points). However, the club still decided to bring in a more experienced manager over the summer, Pioli. While he performed fairly well in the Conference League (though they lost to Mainz in the last round), Fiorentina completely faltered in Serie A: the ambitious project found itself at the very bottom! Paolo Vanoli was brought in to turn things around, but even with him, they only managed a draw against Genoa.
In Turin, the plan before last season was to rely on Thiago Motta, but by spring he was replaced by Tudor. Tudor ultimately led his squad to fourth place in the final standings, but that remained his only achievement. The Croatian has already been replaced by Spalletti, who started with a 2-1 win over Cremonese but then was limited to draws with Sporting and Torino.
The home side is averaging 0.82 goals scored per match while conceding twice as many—1.64. Vlahovic and company have somewhat better numbers: scoring 1.27 per game and conceding 0.91.
