Polissya Zhytomyr of the Ukraine face Italians Fiorentina at the Futbal Tatran Arena in Slovakia on Thursday in the first leg of their European Conference League Play Off. Will our prediction for the match favour Polissya, despite the game being played away from their native Ukraine, or will we be backing I Viola to land the win in a competition in which they have twice been losing finalists?
After gaining promotion to the Ukrainian Premier League in 2023, Polissya first qualified for Europe in the 2024/25 season, making this their second European campaign. They defeated FC Santa Coloma 5-3 on aggregate (1-2, 4-1) to reach the third round and there they beat Paks 4-2 on aggregate (3-0, 1-2). Heading into this game, Polissya have lost both recent home league games, 0-1 to Kolos and then 0-2 to LNZ this past weekend. After three games of their domestic season, they lie 11th in the table with three points.
Fiorentina boss Stefano Pioli won't see his team in league action until next weekend, but the Italians have been busy playing a series of friendlies, notably in England where they lost 2-0 at Leicester before drawing 0-0 at Nottingham Forest and then 1-1 at Old Trafford against Manchester United (losing a penalty shootout 5-4). Seeded into the Conference League playoffs, this will be Fiorentina's first competitive game of the season.

Our FC Polissya Zhytomyr vs Fiorentina Prediction
Our prediction for the FC Polissya Zhytomyr vs. Fiorentina Conference League match is: Both Teams to Score No and Under 2.5 Goals.
The bookmakers clearly favour Fiorentina to win this game and it is easy to see why given the gulf in class between the teams. However, Polissya have proven hard to break down and with this being Fiorentina's first competitive game of the season, the Italian side may be a little rusty. The data suggests they will win, but not by much, so backing BTTS and Under 2.5 Goals here is a good option.
