The last Czech Cup representative, Viktoria Plzen, will open the Conference League quarter-finals at home to Italy’s Fiorentina on Thursday.
The West Czechs are the underdog in the upcoming match, which is also true towards progression. Although coach Koubek and his charges have been performing well in the European Cup, this time they will face the strongest opponent they have met in the ECL. Plzeň has so far avoided opponents from the top five European leagues, which are different from Servette, Zagreb or Astana. Plzeň have a problem on the edges of the pitch before the duel with the Italian team, most of the wingers have health problems. Sýkora was seriously injured over the weekend, neither Jirka, Mosquera or Kopic are fully fit. The latter is the closest to a starting spot.
Fiorentina lost 0-1 to Juventus in Serie A on Sunday, and confirmed that they are not in ideal form at the moment (they had a tough draw in the league). On the other hand, they dominated the ball in Turin, with 75% possession against the Old Lady. Also in the duel with Plzeň the Italian club will control the ball, the technical maturity of the individuals is at a higher level than in the case of the home team. There are a number of great players in the squad who have the potential to make a difference, Gonzalez, Bonaventura, Bellotti, Ikone, Barak and others can score from distance and from close range. In any case, the visitors will put Pilsen under pressure and score goals in the match. In the best case scenario, even Plzen could score, as Fiorentina have been collecting clean sheets quite rarely since mid-January.
What to bet on:
Czech football needs to get a point in the double-duel with Fiorentina, but it will be difficult against an extremely high quality opponent. The visitors are scoring a lot of goals in the cup, the team is pushing as hard as possible to the end. The Italian team will control the game, which is the basic prerequisite for an important victory.
Confidence:
6/10
