Match Overview
Rapid Wien take on Fiorentina in the final of the UEFA Europa Conference League qualification competition at the Allianz Stadion in Vienna on 24 August, Friday. Both these teams are very nicely matched with each other and it will be fascinating to see which of the two breaks the deadlock and manages to get on the scoresheet first. Both have terrific attacking players.
Key Highlights
Rapid Wien, who represent the country of Austria in this competition, will feel that they can get the better of Fiorentina by just playing at their nominal standards. However, the Italian side, who are known for their tight defensive work, will not let the midfielders or the attackers of Rapid Wien run freely in their half. A tight game of checks and errors will take place.
Injury Report
Aleksa Pejic has been ruled out with a hip injury for Rapid Wien. Fiorentina, on the other hand, will have to make do without the likes of Gaetano Castrovilli and Antonin Barak for this game.
Prediction
We expect BTTS (both teams to score) in this game. Rapid Wien have not got on the scoresheet in the last two matches that they have played at home, and this will worry them endlessly. Fiorentina, on the other hand, have not kept a clean sheet in the last five matches that they have played. The better defensive side will emerge as the winner in this encounter.
