As were noted in football betting predictions the Florentines were unable to get closer to the coveted top 5 in the last round of Serie A, losing the victory over Roma at home in the 95th minute (2-2). Italiano’s team is still 5 points behind the Champions League zone, however, the whole fight is ahead, especially for an expanded quota from Italy in the UCL for the next season, how can one not fight?
In the LC, the Florentines used a mixed line-up – 4-3 with Maccabi in the difficult weather conditions of Budapest. With all the favoritism of the Violas, they concede a lot, which comes from the team’s playing style (they are too keen on pressing) and problems in defense.
Last weekend, the Violets, with the support of their home team, drew 2:2 with the capital’s Roma in the Italian Championship. In addition, on Thursday, Fiorentina, after winning the first away match, drew 1:1 with Maccabi Haifa in the Conference League playoffs. Now Vincenzo Italiano’s team will play in the quarterfinals with Czech Victoria.
In general, Fiorentina’s unbeaten streak in all tournaments already totals six matches – two wins and four draws. Based on the results of 28 rounds, Vincenzo Italiano’s team is in eighth place in Serie A, five points behind the European Cup zone. We also note that the Violets did not win on the road in 8 of the 9 previous matches in Serie A.
Milan’s current form
Stefano Pioli’s team approached the second away match of the 1/8 finals of the Europa League on Thursday against Slavia after a 4:2 victory over the Czechs at home. However, the Rossoneri did not stop there and beat the Prague team again – 3:1. In the quarterfinals, Milan will now face the Italian derby against Roma.

In the last championship game, Milan also achieved victory, beating Empoli at home – 1:0. This success became the eighth for the “red-blacks” in a period of 11 previous rounds of the championship. Thanks to this, Milan moved ahead of Juventus and moved into second place in the Serie A standings.
Game prediction
Milan will take to the field just two days after the Europa League match, but the confrontation with Slavia Prague, which is inferior in class to the Rossoneri, can hardly be called energy-consuming. Otherwise, Milan today surpasses Verona in all respects and is in excellent shape, churning out victory after victory in Serie A.
