Fiorentina-Venezia and Torino-Atalanta are two matches of the second day of Serie A and are played Sunday at 6:30pm: live TV, streaming, probable formations, predictions.
Two draws in the space of a few days, against non-negligible opponents. Frankly, more was expected from a Fiorentina side that has changed so much since last season, including the coach, and still looks like an open building site. The Viola, after the 1-1 draw in Parma – a Biraghi free kick prevented defeat in the final – also made life difficult for themselves with the modest Hungarians of Puskas Akademia in the Conference League match, valid for the play-offs for access to the championship stage, drawing 3-3.
Technician Palladino said at least two or three more signings are missing, waiting for the negotiations for Nico Gonzalez, who is very close to Juventus, to be unblocked. Fiorentina, meanwhile, is hunting for its first victory against newly promoted Venezia: the lagunari made their debut with a 3-1 defeat at the Olimpico against Lazio, revealing more than one problem in their own half of the field. For the club and coach Di Francesco, there is a lot of work to be done. It’s fair to expect some turnover from Palladino, who in defense will be without Pongracic, who was sent off in Parma, while his colleague rejoins Idzes and Candela, who were absent due to disqualification in Rome.
The prediction
Two teams that right now are struggling with a defensive phase that is not up to par: staying out of the final result, considering also the upcoming European commitment of the Viola, we assume a prolific match, from at least three goals in total.
The probable lineups of Fiorentina-Venezia
FIORENTINA (3-4-2-1): De Gea; Martinez Quarta, Ranieri, Comuzzo; Dodò, Richardson, Mandragora, Biraghi; Colpani, Kouamé; Kean.
VENICE (3-4-2-1): Joronen; Idzes, Svoboda, Sverko; Candela, Nicolussi Caviglia, Duncan, Zampano; Oristanio, Ellertsson; Gytkjaer.
POSSIBLE RESULT: 2-1

Second consecutive away match for Gian Piero Gasperini’s Atalanta, which on its debut did not get distracted by market rumors – Dea very active both in and out – and overwhelmed Lecce 4-0 thanks to the doubles of two new signings, Brescianini and Retegui. Not a bad show of strength for the Nerazzurri, capable of immediately archiving the defeat in the European Super Cup against Real Madrid.
Turin also started the season on the right foot, transformed in purely tactical terms by new coach Paolo Vanoli. The granata put a scare into AC Milan on Saturday, coming close to a historic victory at the San Siro. Leading by two goals, Zapata and his teammates let themselves be reeled back in the final minutes, a sign that there is something to review defensively but also character-wise. The former Venezia coach seems inclined to confirm the lineup that faced the Rossoneri – the only ballot between Sanabria and Adams in attack – but Gasperini, with Koopmeiners still out for market reasons, will also repropose the eleven that downed Lecce.
The prediction
An important test for Atalanta, which will tell us more about the state of form of Gasperini’s Dea, which was outstanding on the first day in Salento. The Torino seen at work with AC Milan, however, will be able to hold their own in a match in which both will most likely score.
The probable formations of Torino-Atalanta
TORINO (3-5-2): Milinkovic-Savic; Vojvoda, Coco, Masina; Lazaro, Linetty, Ricci, Ilic, Sosa; Zapata, Sanabria.
ATALANTA (3-4-2-1): Carnesecchi; Djimsiti, de Roon, Hien; Zappacosta, Ederson, Pasalic, Ruggeri; Brescianini, De Ketelaere; Retegui.
POSSIBLE RESULT: 1-2
