Fiorentina will host Genk in their next Europa Conference League on Thursday, in Group F of the competition. Heading into the game, Fiorentina are top of the pile with eight points, two ahead of third placed Genk. This is one complicated group, as any of the top three can find themselves up after this round. Those three leading sides are all unbeaten in the Europa League this season. The Italians opened their Europa Conference League campaign with two straight draws but recovered to win on Match Day 4. If they get a win here they’ll be through to the next stage. Viola haven't enjoyed the best of times in their recent matches. They are coming from a 1-0 loss to AC Milan – their third defeat in five matches. Vincenzo Italiano’s charges have failed to score in those three matches, all which ended in losses. They also lack stability at home, with two wins and as many losses in five matches. Fiorentina have one clean sheet in five home matches.

Like Fiorentina, Genk are coming into this game on the back of a loss. They fell 1-0 to Standard Liege in their domestic league and a return to winning ways will be the target here. That loss halted a two-game unbeaten run, but Genk have managed just one win in their last four matches. They do have a good scoring run, though winning comfortably in just one of their last five matches, 4-0 against URSL Vise. Three of their last five matches have had over 2.5 goals. Genk don’t really take a strong away run to this game; they failed to win any of their last three matches on the road. Two of their last three away matches ended in defeat. In their first meeting with Fiorentina, Genk twice came from behind to force a 2-2 draw at home. That was the first of three draws in their four matches in this group.
