Prediction: 0-1
Fiorentina
There will be fireworks when APOEL and Fiorentina lock horns at Neo GSP Stadium on Thursday evening. The Cypriotes failed to impress in a shocking 1-0 loss to Borac Banjaluka and, as a result, the bookies see them as underdogs in the round 3 clash. Ghana midfielder Kingsley Sarfo remains in the recovery room, but there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
The Violets, on the other hand, look unstoppable at the moment, with the team eyeing their eighth consecutive win in all competitions. Fiorentina are more of a team than APOEL and we predict that the visitors are going to pick up all three points from Thursday’s clash. Both Danilo Cataldi and Albert Gudmundsson are out of contention with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the visiting team. This will be the first meeting between APOEL and Fiorentina in the Europa Conference League.
