UEFA Conference League semi-finalists Fiorentina take on Cagliari in the Serie A on Wednesday, and US-based soccer fans can find out how to watch the match on TV or via a live stream by following our guide.
Fresh off the back of booking their spot in the UEFA Conference League semi-finals for an impressive third consecutive season, Fiorentina return to Serie A action with an away trip to face relegation candidates Cagliari.
The fixture was due to be played on Easter Monday, however it was postponed following the death of Pope Francis and was quickly rescheduled to be played on Wednesday alongside three other Italian top-flight matches.
Raffaele Palladino’s side are unbeaten in six across all competitions in the lead-up to the game. Their most recent league outing ended in a 0-0 draw against Parma, and they drew 2-2 against Milan prior to that.
They now find themselves outside of the European qualification positions in eighth place, three points adrift of seventh-place Lazio and four points behind sixth-place Roma, while they are two points ahead of ninth-place Milan.
Gli Isolani are a massive 23 points behind their 33rd round opponents down in 15th place, just two points ahead of Parma, four in front of Lecce, and five above Venezia and Empoli in the relegation zone.
Davide Nicola’s men have managed just one win across their last eight, a 3-0 triumph over bottom-of-the-table Monza, and they most recently fell to a 3-1 defeat against league leaders Inter at the San Siro.

The hosts are more or less at full strength, with Alessandro Deiola being the only absentee – missing out on the clash through suspension. Roberto Piccoli, who scored in the defeat against Inter last time out, should lead the line once again.
Fiorentina, meanwhile, are able to welcome back Matias Morena, Dodo and Nicolo Zaniolo after the trio missed the second leg draw vs Celje last week through suspension, while former Arsenal defender Pablo Mari is also eligible to make his return.
Andrea Colpani is reportedly the only doubt for Palladino’s side.

Cagliari vs Fiorentina Prediction
I Viola travel to Sardinia in good form, having gone unbeaten across all competitions since their defeat to Napoli at the start of March, while the hosts are in poor form, with just one league victory since mid-February.
As well, Fiorentina are unbeaten in eight straight matches against Gli Isolani in Serie A since November 2019 (five wins, three draws), most recently recording a narrow 1-0 win in December’s round 15 meeting.
We at FootItalia expect Moise Kean and co. to maintain their strong record against Cagliari with a comfortable triumph at the Unipol Domus on Wednesday.
Prediction: Cagliari 0-2 Fiorentina
