Latest information on Venezia vs Fiorentina forces
Fiorentina will be without Nicolo Zaniolo (suspension) and Danilo Cataldi (thigh injury). Moise Kean – this season’s top scorer – could also be absent after picking up an injury in the defeat to Betis. Lucas Beltran is likely to partner Albert Gudmundsson up front.
The good news for coach Palladino is that center-back Pablo Mari will return to the starting lineup after being left out of the European Cup squad. Defender Dodo has also recovered from appendicitis surgery.
Venezia have few squad concerns. Goalkeeper Filip Stankovic is back, but Andrei Radu – who has impressed in recent times as a substitute – will continue to start. Only Richie Sagrado and Michael Svoboda are absent.
Christian Gytkjaer and Daniel Fila compete for the starting spot at centre-forward, supported by John Yeboah or Gaetano Oristanio.

Latest football commentary on Venezia vs Fiorentina
Fiorentina suffered a huge disappointment when they lost to Real Betis in the second leg of the UEFA Conference League semi-final. Despite Robin Gosens scoring a brace of headers to level the score on aggregate and take the match into extra time, the purple team were still eliminated 4-3 on aggregate, missing out on a third consecutive European final.
Coach Raffaele Palladino and his team need to quickly overcome that shock to focus on the race for a ticket to the European Cup next season. They are currently lagging behind Juventus, Bologna and the two capital teams in the rankings, with only three rounds left.
Fiorentina had gone six Serie A games unbeaten, but last week's 1-0 loss to Roma left them with no chance of winning. The remaining fixtures are also not easy, with away trips to Venezia and Udinese, and a derby against Bologna in between.
Notably, Fiorentina were held to a 0-0 draw by Venezia in the first leg. If they want to keep their European hopes alive, they must win this rematch.
Venezia, who have been stuck in the relegation zone for most of the season, still have a chance of survival if they make a breakthrough in the final stages. Eusebio Di Francesco's team just drew 1-1 with Torino and have drawn 10 times in 2025 - the most in the league.
Venezia, Lecce and Empoli are currently battling it out for 17th place. They have home advantage in their remaining two games – against Fiorentina and Juventus – and will need to make the most of it.
At Stadio Penzo, Venezia have won all four of their games this season, most recently against Monza in April. They have also won all four of their last Serie A meetings with Fiorentina – a statistic that gives the home side hope.
