Rapid Wien vs Fiorentina Prediction & Betting Tips - Conference League
by Devesh Jaganath in Conference League Predictions
The playoff round in the Europa Conference League qualifiers will get underway this week, with Rapid Vienna taking on Fiorentina. This first leg will take place at Allianz Stadion on Thursday, and the winners of this tie will qualify for the Conference League group stages. Rapid Vienna finished fourth in the Austrian Bundesliga last season, managing just one win in their last five matches. However, they will come into this match in very good spirits. They beat Blau-Weiss Linz 5-0 in the Bundesliga over the weekend to move into the top four after four matches. That was also their second consecutive 5-0 win, following their victory over Debrecen in the second leg of the last round in thiscompetition. In seven competitive matches this season, Rapid have recorded four wins, two draws, and one loss. During that time, the host's most notable strength has been in defence. They have conceded just two goals so far this season while scoring 22 in that period. However, they now face their biggest challenge this season, against a side that are one of the favorites to reach the group stages. The bookies are giving Rapid Vienna around a 6/1 chance of securing a first-leg victory in this one.
Meanwhile, few can forget last season's Conference League final when Jarrod Bowen's stoppage-time winner denied Fiorentina the title. The visitors will be out for redemption this season but were almost unable to compete in the competition. They finished in eighth place in Serie A last season and were the first side below the Conference League qualification spot. However, due to Juventus being banned from European football this season, Viola replaced them in the competition. Despite their poor league position last term, Fiorentina ended the league campaign well. They won three of their final four league matches and drew the other match against Torino. Fiorentinabegan this season very promising as well, beating Genoa 4-1 on the opening weekend to take the lead in Serie A. Bookmakers are expecting them to carry that form into this competition, currently pricing the Italian side at 1.1 to qualify for the group stage .
