Fiorentina is preparing to play against Como with a possible return to 4-3-3, after the defeat against Genoa and the need to recover points to avoid dropping in the standings. Coach Paolo Vanoli stated that the change in formation was motivated by Atta's injury and the sub-optimal form of Gonçalves, who has played little recently. The 4-3-3, considered more solid, should guarantee greater balance and compactness to the Viola defense, which has shown numerous cracks in recent matches.
The calendar is not simple: the next match is against Como, but Fiorentina will also have to face Cesc Fabregas' team, who returns from his latest injury in the Champions League. Vanoli has already identified some tactical adjustments for Sunday's match, with the aim of restoring solidity to the defense and improving offensive performances. The team needs points to avoid falling in the standings, where only Venezia and Monza have recorded worse results.
Among the changes to the department, midfielder Brescianini has been "drunk" and could return to the field in place of the Ivorian. The former Atalanta player, who had played the role of left back in the past, could now find a new position alongside Fagioli and Ndour. Furthermore, defender Mastantuono, who has just returned to form after wrist surgery, is ready for the next match against Como.
With Fiorentina looking for balance and points, the next match against Como represents a crucial opportunity to consolidate their position in the standings and demonstrate the solidity of Vanoli's new system. The team will have to make the most of the possibility of returning to the 4‑3‑3 to try to regain the confidence and competitiveness necessary to face the next challenges.
