The last season saw Fiorentina journey all the way to the Conference League final, only to face heartbreak against West Ham in Prague. But this defeat didn’t dampen their spirits. In fact, due to some off-the-pitch events at Juventus, Fiorentina, who finished 8th in Serie A, got another shot at European glory.
Their away performances were pivotal in their journey to the final, with six consecutive road victories under their belt. Interestingly, they managed to net a minimum of three goals in each of those away fixtures. Riding on their positive start to the Serie A season, they’ll be hoping to replicate their formidable away form against Rapid Vienna.
Rapid Vienna’s Home Woes
Contrastingly, Rapid Vienna, despite crushing Debrecen 5-0 on aggregate in the third qualifying round, have had their own set of challenges, especially at home. Their home record has been less than impressive, having clinched only two victories in their last four months. Moreover, they were ousted from the Conference League last term after suffering a home defeat to Vaduz.
The upcoming game will be the maiden encounter between these two sides, making it even more unpredictable and exciting.

Expert Predictions
1. Match Outcome Prediction: Drawing from the data, Fiorentina’s European experience, combined with their recent away form, suggests they have the edge. Rapid Vienna’s home struggles further tilt the balance in Fiorentina’s favour. Hence, we predict a victory for Fiorentina, which is available at decent odds.
2. Goal Expectation: Both teams have shown they can find the back of the net. Rapid Vienna amassed 10 goals in their last two wins, while Fiorentina began their season with a four-goal spectacle. Considering this, a reasonable score prediction would be a 2-1 win for Fiorentina.
3. Goalscorer Prediction: Given the form and the recent data, Nicolás González from Fiorentina is our pick to score at least once in this fixture. He’s started the season on a positive note, and his attacking prowess will be crucial for la Viola.
