The final weekend of 2023 in the Serie A will kick off under the lights at Stadio Artemio Franchi, where Fiorentina and Torino will lock horns, hoping to end the year on a high.
The hosts have taken 30 points from 17 matches this season and are occupying the sole Europa League qualification spot, while the visitors are in 10th place with 24 points over the same period.
We say: Fiorentina 2-1 Torino
While Torino have enjoyed success in this fixture in the recent past, Fiorentina come into this match with all the momentum and following five consecutive home wins in all competitions. The visitors are no pushover, but we fancy the hosts to take the points in this one.

Lurching from crisis to crisis, reigning champions Napoli will try to get their season back on track as they welcome mid-table Monza to Stadio Maradona on Friday evening.
The ailing Scudetto holders exited the Coppa Italia and were then beaten by Roma just before Christmas, and they sit only four places above their visitors in the standings just shy of Serie A's halfway stage.
We say: Napoli 1-0 Monza
Ending an incredible year with a win, Napoli may prevail in their final fixture - but mainly because of their opponents' shortcomings. While the Partenopei now tend to struggle on home turf, Monza have scored just six goals on the road this term and should come up short at Stadio Maradona.

One win away from being crowned 'Winter Champions', Inter Milan visit Genoa on Friday, seeking to extend their lead at the top of Serie A.
Inter are four points clear of nearest challengers Juventus after beating Lecce just before Christmas, while their hosts edged further away from the drop zone by seeing off Sassuolo.
We say: Genoa 1-2 Inter Milan
Although Genoa have proven tough to beat at Marasssi, there is simply no stopping Serie A leaders Inter, who are set to confirm their status as 'Winter Champions' by claiming maximum points in Liguria. Even a handful of injuries cannot derail Simone Inzaghi's impressive squad, who will end a memorable year in style.

Lazio vs. Frosinone (Friday, 7.45pm)

Riddled with inconsistencies so far, Lazio will try to pick up back-to-back wins for just the second time this season when they welcome Frosinone to Stadio Olimpico on Friday evening.
The Eagles sit only five places above their visitors in the Serie A table, just shy of the halfway stage, while they are six points off the top five spots.
We say: Lazio 2-1 Frosinone
Lazio's inconsistency means while they may be favourites for this one, it could be a much closer outing than Sarri would prefer.
The visitors Frosinone are in the midst of a rut though, so this will be a tough task, especially because they have been poor on the road this season.
