Fiorentina vs. Genoa (Monday, 5.30pm)
After failing to score in their last two matches, misfiring Fiorentina welcome mid-table Genoa to Stadio Franchi on Monday evening.
Having lost in Serie A last week, the Viola were then held goalless in Europe; meanwhile, their visitors are intent on overtaking them to secure a top-half finish.
We say: Fiorentina 1-1 Genoa
While Genoa's recent record in this fixture is woeful, they have had more time to rest and train, while Fiorentina are between two legs of an important European tie. As the Grifone are durable away from home and their hosts lack reliable firepower, a low-scoring stalemate is surely on the cards.

Atalanta vs. Hellas Verona (Monday, 7.45pm)
Having stunned Europe by slaying Liverpool at Anfield, Atalanta BC will try to recover lost ground in Serie A when they host Hellas Verona on Monday evening.
The Bergamo club scored three times without reply in the first leg of their Europa League quarter-final, but they had lost their two previous games and have plenty of work to do in domestic competition.
We say: Atalanta BC 1-0 Hellas Verona
Atalanta have won eight of their last 11 league matches against Verona, and that trend should continue despite the hosts having one eye on finishing the job against Liverpool. The Scaligeri will scrap hard to steal a point, but their lack of firepower means that even one mistake could cost them dearly.
