With this trip to RFS Riga, Fiorentina must outperform Istanbul Basaksehir in order to claim first place in their Conference League group. In Latvia, it begins at 15.30 GMT. Although both the Turkish and Viola teams have already qualified for the next round of the competition, they are now tied for the lead thanks to their head-to-head record solely.
In order to avoid a play-off and win the group, Fiorentina must do better than Basaksehir versus Hearts. The team led by Vincenzo Italiano is also seeking retribution for the several opportunities they missed during the 1-1 draw with RFS at the Stadio Franchi.
Arthur Cabral is picked to be the attack’s leader while Riccardo Sottil, Nico Gonzalez, and Gaetano Castrovilli are still hospitalised due to injuries. However, RFS manager Viktor Morozs has made some adjustments. Vitalijs Maksimenko, who is often a centre back, is now playing wingback, with Deniss Rake’s and Tomá Simkovi on the wings.
Pierluigi Gollini has been sent to the sidelines by Fiorentina manager Vincenzo Italiano. Given that the game doesn’t really matter, Nikola Milenkovi, Luka Jovi, Christian Kouamé, and Cristiano Biraghi also get the night off.
