PivotalOutstanding performance

Fiorentina controlled the ball with 60% possession and doubled Frosinone's shot count, but wastefulness in front of goal proved fatal as they managed just one big chance created and converted none of their 25 attempts. Frosinone, by contrast, needed only three real openings to score three goals, with Antonio Raimondo grabbing a brace either side of a Gabriele Bracaglia header from a corner. The visitors defended deep and disciplined, committing 21 fouls and making 29 tackles to disrupt Fiorentina's rhythm, then punished them clinically on the counter. For Fiorentina this is a damaging result given their higher position and prestige heading into the season, while Frosinone's efficiency in a low-possession, high-conversion performance will be a major confidence boost early in the campaign.
How entertaining was this match?
Both Fiorentina and Frosinone arrive at the Stadio Artemio Franchi desperate for their first points of the new Serie A season after opening-day defeats. Fiorentina, stung by a humiliating 4-0 loss at Roma, will look to impose themselves on home soil against a Frosinone side that fell narrowly 1-0 to Juventus. Expect a motivated home side with something to prove, but Frosinone will fancy themselves as dangerous underdogs.
