Three wins, no draws and one defeat, on the first visit, for Juventus Women in Florence.
This is the running balance between Fiorentina and Juventus in Tuscany, a match that takes place again this Saturday, 11 February at 12.30 CET,
With the two teams tied in second place in the Serie A standings, this season the showdown takes on even more importance.
Let's look back at those black and white victories.
GETTING EVEN
Fiorentina-Juventus in season 2018/19 gave the Bianconere the opportunity to take revenge on the previous year's defeat.
And to show the seriousness of their intentions was the quick goal by Cristiana Girelli, able to flick home a corner kick.
DONE AND DUSTED
In the second half, Juve closed out the game with a second goal. A perfect example of direct football undid the home defence.
Eniola Aluko played through Barbara Bonansea, who one-on-one, slotted the ball into the net.
ANDREA'S AFTERNOON
The outstanding solo performance in Florence in the 2020-21 championship came from of Andrea Staskova. The Czech striker decided the match with a brace.
Both goals arrived in the first half, one to open the game, the second to cancel out the home side's momentary draw.
WINNING MARGIN
Last season Juve overwhelmed their Tuscan opponents. Ahead at the break thanks to Bonansea, Juve pushed on with even more determination in the second half.
Barbara completed her double before Valentina Cernoia wrapped up the scoring with a perfectly executed free-kick.
The 3-0 result rewarded the Bianconere with their largest winning margin at Fiorentina in what was a real test of strength.
