They have four wins and two draws in the elimination phase of the competition. However, two out of those wins came either after added time or penalties. Nevertheless, Heiko Vogel and his men are proving to be one of the standouts in this year’s Europa Conference League.
Fiorentina were the firm favourite to get to the final and even win the competition before the first leg. Fiorentina actually went on a nine-game win streak in the competition. Eliminating Sporting Braga, Sivasspor, and Lech Poznan along the way.
Their winning run was broken at home versus Lech, where they lost by 3:2, but still managed to advance. However, the more concerning fact is the second loss in a row, suffered versus Basel again at home. Vincenzo Italiano has a lot of work in front of him to get his men ready for the next tie.
