Club Brugge will not be able to count on a tired Fiorentina next week. The Viola coach rotated his group massively for this weekend’s match!
Fiorentina’s priority is now clearly known. After the 3-2 victory in the first leg against Club Brugge, we wondered if the Viola would approach the match against Hellas Verona differently. The answer is yes.
Vincenzo Italiano has indeed rotated massively for this trip, while Fiorentina could always go for a European ticket in the event of a good run at the end of the season.
It’s simple: of the 11 players who started against Bruges, only defender Luca Ranieri remained in the team. Andrea Belotti or Giacomo Bonaventura only played for half an hour. A match that Fiorentina has clearly put aside.
With a valuable advantage gained in the first leg, it is the Viola A team which will come to Jan Breydel this Wednesday. The possibility of facing an Olympiakos perceived as “capable” in the final allows us to dream of a European title, which would also mean a ticket for the Europa League.
In the running for the Jupiler Pro League title, FC Brugge was unable to afford the same luxury when traveling to Antwerp. It remains to be seen whether freshness will play a role in the semi-final return…
