The Violets are also unbeaten in their last three home matches in Serie A having recorded three successive victories at the Stadio Artemio Franchi.
 
Meanwhile, Napoli hammered a hapless AC Monza side 4-0 at home in their last league match which was played on August 21.
 
Therefore, the Little Donkeys are now undefeated in their last six matches in this competition having recorded six consecutive victories. 
 
Napoli are also unbeaten in their last three matches on the road having registered three successive wins as the away side. 
 
“We had an excellent match, always managing to keep our balance and we always commanded the match," Napoli manager Luciano Spalletti said after their win over Monza.
 
"But it was not at all easy against this Monza team, also because we were unable to take advantage of the favourable situations at the start of the match.
 
"He [Khvicha Kvaratskhelia] is a great professional and a great guy, he can still grow a lot. [Victor Osimhen] He did well and even after the change the team held up well."
 
The last meeting between Fiorentina and Napoli in a league match was on 10 April 2022.
 
Fiorentina edged out Napoli in a five-goal thriller as they ran out 3-2 winners in a match which was played at the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona.
