Our Expert Predictions & Analysis on Fiorentina vs Rapid

Fiorentina

Fiorentina failed to get off to a good start in European competition as the team lost 0-1 away to Rapid with a minimal score. The boys of Vincenzo Italiano looked much more convincing in terms of play, the team had possession of the ball over 60% of the playing time and attacked regularly. It is worth noting that the Austrians skillfully defended, as a result, even before the break, having managed to open an account. After the break, the "lilies" continued to bend their line, the club ran forward all the time, as a result, and failed to save at least a draw.

The Florentines run the risk of not breaking into the group of the tournament, which they almost won last season, reaching the final.

Rapid

Rapid took another step towards the group stage of the LCF, the team defeated Fiorentina 1:0 at home. Zoran Barisic's wards did not hope to outplay the Violet from a position of strength, the team was forced to sit on the defensive, hoping for high-speed counterattacks. As a result, the idea of the "green-whites" worked, Gryul brought them ahead in the first half. After the break, Rapid continued to stick to the original plan, never allowing the Italians to restore balance.

The Austrians are well prepared for the new season, not passing into their own net in 5 out of 6 last meetings.

Game Totals Prediction

Fiorentina took a painful blow to their ego in Austria, last year's tournament finalist at home will try to rectify his situation. Rapid achieved success in his home field, but did not solve the problem of successful performance in pairs. I think that the class of the hosts is higher, which they will confirm on their field, having managed to win back the away handicap: the victory of Fiorentina with a handicap 1 (-1.5) - 1.56.
