In the upcoming second-leg match of the UEFA Conference League quarter-finals between "Fiorentina" and "Viktoria Plzen", low scoring is expected. Both teams are struggling to score goals: "La Viola" have only scored four goals in their last six matches, and the Czech side also prefers a defensive style of play. Considering the compact defenses of both teams, the likelihood of the match being high-scoring is very low. Therefore, it is recommended to expect low scoring and possibly a draw or a minimal number of goals scored.
Fiorentina is hosting Viktoria in the return match, where both teams are struggling with scoring goals. However, Fiorentina, playing at home, prefers an attacking style of play, which can lead to an open and high-scoring game. The team is of a higher class and is likely to beat the Czech Viktoria with a score of 2-3 goals. However, it is possible to concede a goal due to the activity in attack. Thus, an interesting match with three goals scored, in favor of Fiorentina, is expected.
In the return match of the Europa Conference League quarter-finals, Fiorentina will host Viktoria Plzen. Fiorentina is experiencing problems, having lost many matches. Viktoria looks strong, not losing away from home in 15 games in a row. Additionally, the team has experience and a solid defense. Fiorentina is in a difficult situation, so the match could end in a draw after regular time. Considering the form and results of the teams, it might be worth considering the outcome X2 in favor of Viktoria Plzen.
Prediction for the match Fiorentina - Viktoria Plzen: Viktoria will play a closed football, hoping for counterattacks, but if Fiorentina scores, they will need to go forward. The hosts do not have the most reliable defense, and Viktoria performs well away from home, not losing in their last fifteen matches. Fiorentina has almost not conceded at home. Therefore, a bet on both teams to score - yes, seems possible and risky, but with high potential.
Fiorentina showed a passive game in the first match, not creating dangerous moments. However, playing at home, the team usually plays more aggressively and creates many xG opportunities. Viktoria plays defensively away from home and typically does not show much activity. Considering these factors, Fiorentina has a good chance of winning by a margin of two goals or more. Viktoria has little chance of success away from home.
"Fiorentina" will play against "Viktoria Plzeň" in the second leg of the Conference League. The Czech team is trying to hold on to a draw and has good stats in that regard. "Fiorentina", although having had some trouble scoring goals, recently showed a more productive game. However, in previous matches against other opponents, the teams have not been able to break through the defense with a margin as much as "Viktoria Plzeň" offers. We expect a tough battle and believe that "Viktoria" will be able to avoid defeat by a margin of more than 2 goals.
In the return match between Fiorentina and Viktoria Plzen, I recommend betting on a goal by the away team. Fiorentina is in unstable form, conceding goals in most matches. Viktoria has shown themselves well in the Conference League playoffs, scoring in 7 out of their last 10 matches. Fiorentina may push forward, leaving spaces in defense, which could allow Viktoria to create chances and score a goal.
