Cagliari, 21 April 2025 –  For the mourning linked to the death of Pope Francis, the match is postponed to Wednesday 23 April at 18pm.

 With the recovery of two important owners (Dodo and Gosens) and a puzzle in goal (De Gea is not at his best, Terracciano is ready) Fiorentina plays in Cagliari a delicate and (on paper) complicated race on the path towards a European placing.

Kick-off at 15pm, live TV on Dazn.

To continue on their path, the Viola must overcome the difficulties they usually encounter against the "small" teams and must beat Nicola's team that is looking for salvation points. To do this, there is little room for turnover, apart from Judicial which could probably give Cataldi a breather. Up front, the Kean-Gudmundsson duo, with the possibility of using Beltran instead of the Icelander. Palladino, however, does not intend to overturn the formation which, drawing 2-2 with Celje, has conquered the semi-final of Conference League.

Probable lineups

CAGLIARI (4-4-1-1): Caprile; Zappa, Mina, Luperto, Augello; Zortea, Adopo, Makoumbou, Luvumbo; Viola, Small. Trainer. Nicholas.

FIORENTINA (3-5-2): Terracciano; Pongracic, Marì, Ranieri; Dodo, Mandragora, Adli, Fagioli, Gosens; Gudmundsson, Kean. Coach: Palladino.

Referee: Mr. Marinelli of Tivoli
