After beating Parma at home, Fiorentina has achieved a record of 17 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses in the 24 rounds of Serie A that have ended, accumulating 55 points, although this result is a little bit shabby compared with previous seasons, but the Purple Lily can still leave other teams behind and dominate the top of the standings!

Coupled with a comfortable victory over Arsenal in the first leg of the Champions Cup, the Coppa Italia reached the final...... This series of dazzling results has given Fiorentina the hope of defending the treble so far, so although the team's results have fluctuated to a certain extent this season, under the championship trophy, Fiorentina's dressing room still maintains a good atmosphere, and there are no signs of instability.

Compared to Fiorentina, who have triumphant on all fronts, Parma's situation this season looks somewhat unpleasant. After the former coach Carlo Ancelotti switched to the arms of the Bianconeri, although Parma appointed Malesani as the new coach of the Milk Army at the first time, stabilized the turbulent military spirit after the departure of Ancelotti, and also brought in Veron, a strong reinforcement from Sampdoria, but the change of team leadership still brought a lot of negative impact on Parma's appearance.

It is because of this change that when the league is in the sprint stage, Parma, who have been regarded as a strong contender for the Serie A title in previous years, have been left far behind by the previous title contenders, and can only lower their goal to a place in next season's Champions Cup.

However, Parma's performance in this season's UEFA Champions League has been a decent one, and under the guidance of the versatile Malesani, Parma took a solid step towards the quarter-finals of the Champions League with a 3-1 win away from Portuguese giants Porto in their quarter-finals in midweek.

It was thanks to his excellent results in the Champions League that Malaisani retained his position and did not suffer the fate of being sacked by the club due to his poor league results.

However, after losing the showdown with Fiorentina, the Parma hierarchy, led by Francesca, once again began to doubt Malaisani's coaching ability. After all, the league can still play this virtue when the team has introduced a lot of strong reinforcements, and it has fallen into a situation where it has to fight for the Champions Cup places, and the head coach definitely has an unshirkable responsibility!

Of course, Francesca would not say that the reason why she disliked Malesani was because she learned in a casual conversation with her best friend Rebecca Groz that Zhuang Mingge was very unhappy with the manager she had chosen, and only gave an assessment of "a manager with a lot of tactical knowledge, but no other highlights".

Although Florence, which he controls, is a direct rival to Parma, Francesca trusts the other side's eye. The main thing is that the Fiorentina president has always had a high level of goodwill towards her and Parma, and his actions are mostly based on mutual benefit, which is completely different from the domineering style of Moggi and Galliani.

After talking about Parma, let's look at Florence, after a week's rest, the Fiorentina team came to the northeast of Italy, and they will play a Serie A 25th round match with Venice in this world-famous water capital.

Venice's performance in the first half of Serie A fits well with its lack of financial resources and lack of foundation, with the promoted polo team almost in free fall heading straight for the relegation zone. In everyone's opinion, there is no doubt that this team will take their place in the relegation zone at the end of the season.

However, this trend changed dramatically after Venezia made a desperate move to spend most of their transfer budget on loan from Inter Milan to Recoba. Since the 17th round of Serie A, Venezia have won four wins, two draws and two losses in the last eight Serie A rounds, picking up a full 14 league points - three points more than all the points they have received in the previous 16 rounds of the league.

By the way, Venice's opponents in these eight rounds of the league not only defeated direct rivals like Perugia, who were in the same relegation battle as it, but also eliminated strong opponents such as Udinese and Roma, and even surprisingly made Parma and Juventus, who were undoubtedly behemoths in the eyes of Venice, only end in a depressed draw after the game - Recoba has brought a huge change to Venezia's Serie A team, which can be seen.

It is precisely because of Recoba's existence that Capello took the pre-match meeting very seriously and repeatedly instilled a concept in all the players, that is, Venezia with Recoba has become a completely different team, a terrible opponent who will capsize his own gutter if he is not careful.

"Just by saying that, I'm afraid that some of you may still think that Recoba is just one person, and no matter how capable he is, he will not be able to defeat us who are more powerful. But I must say here, put away all the thoughts of you enemies! At the meeting, which took place on the bus, Capello emphasized, "So, I ask all the players who played today to take this game seriously for me!" Don't just because we won the first meeting easily doesn't mean we can get a win in Venice this time! ”

That being said, Capello can't really give it his all in this game as Fiorentina host the second leg of the Champions League quarter-final against Arsenal in three days' time. If too many key players are used in this league game, the outcome of the Champions League in midweek will be unknown.

Therefore, in order to ensure that the team can qualify for the Champions League, Capello had to rotate most of his main players in this match against Venezia, and put young players such as Andrea Pirlo and Di Natale, as well as substitutes such as Volger, Madavecchia and Fortunato, into the starting line-up.

Otherwise, with the combat effectiveness of Fiorentina's main lineup, let alone a mere Recoba, even if you get a Serie A all-star team, you may not be able to beat Fiorentina!

By the way, Ferrara, who has recovered from a serious injury, is still not selected for the starting list in this game, after all, the nine-month recuperation period has made the former Italian national team's main central defender's state unpredictable (note: After the World Cup in France in this world, the combination of Nesta and Cannavaro became the first choice of the old Maldini, and Materazzi was the first substitute for the two), so for the sake of the team's record, Capello had to put it on hold for the time being, ready to wait for the overall situation of the league to be decided, Give Ferrara a few more opportunities to play and gradually get back to the game.

In this way, Fiorentina, who started as substitutes and young players, ushered in their second meeting with Venezia this season on the afternoon of March 14!
