On June 7, the final match of the UEFA Conference League will take place, in which the Italian Fiorentina will play at home with the English West Ham. The forecast for this match is given by the well-known striker of the Russian national team Roman Pavlyuchenko in the past.
In the domestic arena, both teams failed to achieve their goals, so in this match, in addition to the trophy, they will fight for the right to compete at the Euro arena next season. Fiorentina was closer to the European Cup zone and scored 10 points in the last four rounds of Serie A, but still it was not enough to still get to the top 7. A week ago, the Violets could also guarantee their entry into the Europa League through the national Cup, but they still lost to Inter in the final.
"West Ham" in the English Premier League was in the relegation zone at all, so there was no need to talk about the fight for the European Cup zone. Although by the end of the championship, a quiet life was still provided, and it was completed almost in the middle of the standings. But still, the Londoners did not have any impressive winning streak - they alternated wins with unsuccessful results.
In the Conference League playoffs, both teams did not have to jump over their heads. The Italians passed "Sivasspor", "Lech" and "Basel" in the playoffs, and the British removed AEK Larnaca, "Gent" and AZ from their path.
Roman Pavlyuchenko still prefers Fiorentina in this final. He believes that at least one Italian team should win the European Cup final. Roma have already lost in the Europa League, and Inter is considered a serious underdog in the Champions League in the upcoming confrontation with Manchester City. Violets, according to the expert, were still more stable during the season, compared to West Ham.
