On Thursday, Victoria Pilsen and Fiorentina will play their first historic clash. The two teams will face each other in the Europa League quarter-finals. Their first battle will take place at the Doosan Arena, where Victoria lost their last match. The Czech grand conceded a 1:3 defeat to Liberec, in their match of the 26th round of the championship. At the weekend, the upcoming hosts also failed to get the maximum after drawing with Karviná. Pilsen are currently third in Liga 1, thirteen points adrift of leader Slavia Prague.
Viktoria Plzeň vs Fiorentina Prediction:
Viktoria Plzen recorded an outstanding achievement as the team has not conceded a single goal at its own stadium in the Conference League so far, and has played a total of eight matches at the Doosan Arena. However, I believe that this time the Czech team will not be able to keep a dry net, as they face Fiorentina, who are much classier than the opponents they have played against so far, although the Violets are not having a very successful season. In 2024, the only away win for Fiore was against Maccabi Haifa.
