Prediction:Fiorentina winBest Odds:Bookmaker:Were back with another slate of European fixtures this week and while the focus may be on the Champions League, the semi-final stage is upon us in the other two prominent Corey Kluber Jersey competitions too. That includes the UEFA Europa Conference League, which has given a host of teams a chance to shine on the big stage which includes Fiorentina and Basel, who will collide in their first leg affair on Thursday.FiorentinaAfter years of failing to live up to their fans expectations, Fiorentina have been a bit more consistent so far this season. In addition to looking solid in Serie A, theyve also been able to reach the final of the Coppa Italia. Plus, this is the best theyve looked in European competition for a long time, which is why many have them down as the favourites to go all the way Andrew Miller Jersey and actually claim the trophy.BaselFor whatever reason, Basel always seem to show up when it comes to Europe. The Swi s stars have picked up some big scalps over the years and even though the Conference League isnt where they want to be, theyve done a good job of making it their own. Sure, their league campaign has been a failure by their own standards, but they could make a lot of fans forget Carlos Baerga Jersey about that by reaching the final here.Factors to ConsiderFiorentina beat Poznan 6-4 on aggregate in the last round whereas Basel Joe Carter Jersey beat Nice 4-3 on aggregate.Fiorentina have won one, drawn two and lost three of their last six games.Basel have won three, drawn one and lost two of their last six games.Fiorentina have scored 12 goals and conceded 10 in their last six games.Basel have scored nine goals and conceded eight in their last six games.ConclusionOne thing you have to consider in a game like this is the quality of opposition that both teams play from week to week. Fiorentina, naturally, are in a much harder league, and theyve been coping Tyler Naquin Jersey pretty well with it. While that isnt our only criteria for deciding the winner, we certainly think theyre a better team from head to toe which is why were going to predict that the Italians will edge out a narrow win.Prediction:Fiorentina winBest Odds:Bookmaker: |
