Fiorentina vs. Inter, the complete guide | OneFootball

After their narrow home win over Leipzig in the Champions League, Inter are preparing to return to the pitch. At 18:00 CET on Sunday 1 December, the Nerazzurri will face Fiorentina away from home on matchday 14 of the 2024/25 Serie A season.

HEAD TO HEAD

Fiorentina and Inter have met 172 times in Serie A: the Nerazzurri have 72 wins to their name compared to the Viola's 45, with 55 draws completing the picture. Inter have won six of their last eight fixtures against Fiorentina in the Italian top flight, and the Nerazzurri have also emerged victorious from their last four trips to the Franchi. No team in Serie A history has ever won five consecutive matches away to the Viola.

NERRAZZURRI STATS

Simone Inzaghi's side are on a good run of form and currently sit second in the table both in Serie A and the Champions League. The facts make for good reading: Inter are the only team to have found the net in all of their Serie A matches this season; Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich are the only other two clubs to have done the same in their respective divisions when the top five European Leagues are considered. Inzaghi's men, who have only lost one of their last 16 league matches, have scored 41 Serie A goals away from home in 2024; only twice have they done better in a single calendar year: 46 in 1949 and 43 in 2021.

OUR OPPONENTS: FIORENTINA

Led by Raffaele Palladino, Fiorentina currently sit level with Inter, Atalanta and Lazio on 28 points following eight wins, four draws and a single defeat. The Viola have found the net 27 times, conceding just ten. Their highest scorer so far is Moise Kean, who, together with Thuram, is currently second in the Serie A goalscoring charts (nine goals).

LAUTARO, CALHA AND FIORENTINA

Lautaro Martínez has scored seven goals in his last five appearances against Fiorentina in all competitions; this haul includes three braces. Since wearing the Inter shirt, the Viola are the team the Argentine has had the most success against when it comes to scoring 2+ goals in a single match. In terms of goals, the Tuscans are also Hakan Çalhanoglu's favourite victim in Serie A: the Turk has bagged five times in twelve matches against Fiorentina.

TIKUS' FORM

Quality, substance and physical strength. Marcus Thuram is in great form and has been an inspirational figure in the past few weeks. During his career across Ligue 1, the Bundesliga and Serie A, Tikus has scored 2+ goals in a single game on nine occasions; four of these instances have occurred this campaign. The French attacker could become just the third player in Serie A history to reach double figures in a single campaign having only registered multiple-goal hauls after Norberto Höfling in 1949/50 and Harald Nielsen in 1962/63.

MKHI ALWAYS INVOLVED

Henrikh Mkhitaryan continues to make an indispensable contribution both in attack and defensively, and he's the outfield player who has played the most minutes for Inter so far this top-flight season. The Armenian midfielder has sweet memories of facing Fiorentina: he scored his first Serie A goal for Inter against the Tuscans on 22 October 2022.

BRILLIANT BISSECK

Yann Bisseck just keeps on growing and has displayed reliability and charisma so far this campaign, becoming a vital figure for Simone Inzaghi. Notably, since his arrival in Serie A last season, the German is the player who has played the most matches without ever losing: 24 games since the start of the 2023/24 campaign.
