Fiorentina Hopes New Coach Brings Turnaround in Serie A Basement Battle

As of November 7th, 2025, the Italian Serie A is experiencing a flurry of activity, with managerial changes and injury concerns shaking up the landscape.

Fiorentina, currently at the bottom of the league table, has parted ways with coach Stefano Pioli and appointed former Roma captain and coach Daniele De Rossi. However, De Rossi is suspended for Fiorentina's upcoming match against Genoa, with interim coach Daniele Galloppa set to take charge.

The top teams in the league are also facing challenging fixtures. League leaders Napoli travel to Bologna, who have been unbeaten in nearly two months and sit just three points below the top four. The Milan clubs, AC Milan and Inter Milan, as well as Roma, are all close behind Napoli in the standings. Roma hosts Udinese, while Inter Milan takes on Lazio at the San Siro.

Injuries have also impacted several key players across the league. AC Milan's Rafael Leão, who has been in impressive form, will be available, while Roma's Paulo Dybala is expected to be sidelined for around three weeks due to a hamstring injury. Napoli is also sweating on the fitness of Leonardo Spinazzola and Billy Gilmour after they picked up injuries in their previous match.

Despite the challenges, the race for the Serie A title remains wide open, with several teams vying for the top spot.
