Fiorentina's relegation battle continues as they drop points to Parma...
Fiorentina's point against Parma was a mixed bag - it gets them out of the drop zone for now, but it feels like they missed a chance to get some breathing room. Parma's practically safe now.
Fiorentina's good run was bound to end after back-to-back defeats to Jagiellonia (Conference League) and Udinese (Serie A). They're preparing for the Round of 16 with Rakow - didn't help that they rotated the squad in this crucial relegation battle.
Dodo returned from suspension, replaced on the naughty step by Fabiano Parisi. Moise Kean, Manor Solomon, Luca Lezzerini and Tariq Lamptey were ruled out. Parma were revitalised by three straight wins and a draw against Cagliari, though Adrian Bernabé, Sascha Britschgi, Pontus Almqvist and Matija Frigan missed out. Zion Suzuki returned to the bench after surgery on a hand fracture in November.
