Club Brugge vs Fiorentina Preview
Club Brugge and Fiorentina will meet in the second semi-final of the UEFA Conference League. The game will take place on Wednesday, May 8 at Jan Breydel Stadium in Bruges.
The first match, held in Florence, ended with a 3-2 victory for the Italian club. The hosts scored the decisive goal only in stoppage time – the most important shot was on M'bala Nzola's account. This result made Fiorentina the clear favourite of the confrontation – bookmakers give odds of 1.29-1.35 for the Italians to reach the final, while the chances of the Belgians are estimated at 3.22-3.35. And if Club Brugge expects to play in the Champions League next season – the club is in first place in the Jupiler Pro League, then Fiorentina has much more difficulties in Serie A. The Italians will probably get into the Conference League again, but a victory in the current draw will give them the opportunity to start in the UEFA Europa League.
However, the layouts for the second match of the semi-finals are approximately equal. Judging by Club Brugge vs Fiorentina odds, the victory of the hosts is estimated with odds of 2.50-2.60, and odds 2.70-2.85 correspond to the success of the guests. Fans can bet on a draw for 3.35-3.50.
Let's evaluate the current form of the opponents before the upcoming match and choose the most reliable option for Club Brugge vs Fiorentina tips.
Club Brugge Preview
The defeat by Fiorentina last week is Club Brugge's only setback in the last ten meetings in all tournaments (8 wins, 1 draw). This period not only allowed the team to reach the semi-finals of the UEFA Conference League, but also to top the Jupiler Pro League standings. Last weekend, Club Brugge beat Antwerp (2-1) on the road and beat Anderlecht, the gap is two points.
Nigerian midfielder Raphael Onyedika in Florence received two yellow cards in three minutes, and was removed from the field. Now he will miss the home match. Due to a slight injury, the main goalkeeper of the Nordin Jackers did not participate in the game with Antwerp, but he will most likely be ready for the match with Fiorentina.
Fiorentina Preview
La Viola players are very close to the second UEFA Conference League final in a row – last season they were prevented from taking the title by West Ham United. However, a bad away game can let Fiorentina down: in the last 12 away games, the club has got only two wins with three draws and five defeats. Last weekend, Vincenzo Italiano's team again failed to score points on someone else's field, losing to Verona (1-2), which is desperately fighting to retain its place in Serie A.
Striker Riccardo Sottil, who broke his collarbone in the first match against the Belgians, will not be able to play in Bruges – his season has come to an end.
