Pisa vs Fiorentina

Pisa returned to draw a Serie A match 0-0 for the first time since the away match against Lazio on 30 December 1990; the last home meeting in Serie A dates back to 30 September 1990 against Genoa.

Fiorentina have not won any of their first five Serie A games of the season (3D, 2L) for only the fourth time in their history in Serie A, after 1935/36 (1D, 4L), 1946/47 (2D, 3L) and 1977/78 (2D, 3L).

Fiorentina (three) have scored fewer than four goals in their first five Serie A games of the season for just the third time in the three-points-for-win era (since 1994/95), after two in 2004/05 and two in 2014/15.

Pisa and Fiorentina will meet in Serie A for the first time in over 34 years, last playing on February 24, 1991, when Fiorentina won 4-0 at the Franchi. Pisa has only won one of their 14 Serie A matches against Fiorentina (D6 L7), a 2-1 home victory in November 1987, and has failed to score in their last five encounters.

Fiorentina have scored 11 goals in their last three Serie A matches against Pisa (3.7 per game on average); as many as in their previous 11 league games against them. Furthermore, they have netted at least three goals in each of their last three Serie A meetings with Pisa, without conceding. Only three teams in Serie A history have scored at least three goals in four or more consecutive matches while keeping a clean sheet against a single opponent: Inter (four against Genoa and Palermo); Roma (five against Parma); and Milan (four against Torino).

Pisa have failed to score in their last five Serie A matches against Fiorentina; in the top flight, only six teams have a longer open streak of consecutive clean sheets against a single opponent, but only two of those have had their last match in the three-point-for-a-win era (since 1994/95): Piacenza against Juventus (nine in a row) and Venezia against Napoli (seven).

Fiorentina have not won any of their first four Serie A matches this season (D2 L2) - only three times in their history in the top flight have the Tuscan team failed to win in their first five matches played in a Serie A campaign: in 1935/36 (1D, 4L); in 1946/47 (2D, 3L) and in 1977/78 (2D, 3L).

Fiorentina have drawn both of their first two away games of this season (1-1 against Cagliari and 0-0 against Torino); the Viola could draw all three of their first three away games in a single Serie A campaign for only the second time in their history, after 2000/01, under Fatih Terim.
