Prediction: 3-1
Fiorentina
Twente will look to get their revenge on Fiorentina when they take on the Serie A outfit at De Grolsch Veste in the Conference League playoffs, return leg. The Reds kicked off the new Eredivisie in style, and they are surely capable of matching the Viola in front of home fans. Twente were not in action in the national championship at the weekend, meaning that tired legs are unlikely to prove to be a big problem for the home side. Anyhow, Vaclav Cerny’s troops are likely to adopt an attack-minded approach in the second leg.
Fiorentina, on the other hand, played out a boring goalless draw with ten-man Empoli at the weekend. The Viola aim to defend their slim lead in the tie with Twente, but seeing that the Reds have been impressive on home soil of late, we predict that Luka Jovic and Co. will return to Florence empty-handed. Both Castrovilli and Igor should miss out with injuries for the visiting side.
