Fiorentina vs AEK Athens prediction

Fiorentina have had to sack manager Stefano Pioli, and he has been replaced by Paolo Vanoli. I Viola have been the nearly men in each of the last three UEFA Europa Conference League seasons but they are struggling in Serie A, sitting 19th in the table.

They now face an AEK Athens side that come into this one on the back of a slender 1-0 defeat of Aris Thessaloniki in the Greek Super League. In this competition, AEK have started with a win, a draw and a defeat thus far.

Fiorentina have won two out of three in the UECL and they have to remain as firm favourites at the Artemio Franchi, as they seek respite from Serie A on the continent.
