Prediction: 1-1
Fiorentina
Top position in Group F will be at stake when Ferencvaros and Fiorentina lock horns at Groupama Arena in an eagerly-awaited Conference League game. Dejan Stankovic’s men showed character in their last group game, with the team scoring two late goals to beat Cukaricki at Gradski stadion Dubocica, but they should be happy with one point from Thursday’s clash. There are no fresh injury concerns in the home team ahead of the visit of Fiorentina.
The Viola, meanwhile, did well to beat Genk in their group match, but beating Ferencvaros in Budapest is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, both sides should be happy with one point from the Groupama Arena showdown. As for the Serie A side, both Castrovilli and Dodo continue to miss out through injuries, while Argentina winger Nico Gonzalez is widely expected to return to the starting XI after coming as a substitute in a 1-1 draw with Roma at the weekend.
Highlighted Player (Christian Kouame):
Christian Kouame is an Ivory Coast international who has been playing for Serie A side Genoa since 2018. Kouame started his youth career at Prato and after ending his loan spells with the likes of Sassuolo and Inter, he returned to Stadio Lungobisenzio.
The 185-cm-tall forward made his professional debut with Prato on September 6, 2015 in a 2-1 loss to Pisa. Christian Kouame started the match, but he was replaced by Alberto Aladje after 66 minutes. The Genoa attacker, though, has yet to earn a call-up for the Ivory Coast national team. He has two caps for the Ivory Coast U23 team, but he is still eyeing his senior team debut.
His main position is centre-forward, but he is used as both left and right winger as well. The Genoa footballer was born in Abijan on December 6, 1997 and he has a contract with the Rossoblu until June 30, 2023.
Highlighted Team (Ferencvaros):
Established back in 1899, Ferencvaros are the most successful Hungarian club. The Zold Sasok clinched their 30th domestic trophy in the 2018/2019 season, but they eventually failed to book their place in the Champions League. Dinamo Zagreb proved to be a big catch for Ferencvaros in the Champions League play-offs, but the Green Eagles booked their spot in the Europa League group stages for the first time ever the same season.
Ferencvaros are well known for their green and white home kit, but they wear white shirts and white shorts when playing on the travels. Ujpest are considered the club’s fiercest rivals, whilst Ferencvaros and MTK Budapest face each other in the Eternal derby.
Honved are seen as the club’s bitter rivals as well. Back in 1975 the Zold Sasok made it to the UEFA Cup Winner’s Cup, with the team losing to Ukrainian club Dynamo Kiev in the title game. Sandor Kocsis, who scored 75 goals in 68 appearances for the Hungarian national team, is the club’s most notable footballer.
