Dynamo Kyiv
It's an automatic elimination place decider in the Conference League in one of this weeks early kick offs as Fiorentina host Ukrainian side Dynamo Kyiv. Both sides have shown poor form in their last few games and will be hoping to use this game as a springboard back to winning ways.
Fiorentina will be hoping to extend their foothold in the knockout play-off spots whilst Kyiv will be hoping to finally escape the automatic elimination places. This game will have a lot on the line for both sides so expect high effort and a lot of passion in this one.

There is not a great deal of information we can take from the sides past meetings to inform our predictions over this Thursday's tie. The last time the sides played was all the way back in 2015 and they have only ever played twice in the knockout rounds of the Europa League.
That said we can see that Fiorentina are undfeated against Kyiv and so may bring a mental advanatge into this one knowing their opposition have been unable to beat them before. Furthermore, Fiorentina have been able to keep a clean sheet unlike Kyiv. However we can only marginally use the mental advantage here as the games were so long ago they will be highly unlikely to be factors over this tie.
Last 5 Fiorentina Games:
Fiorentina have had a very poor showing as of late and recent games have just gotten continually worse especially considering their aspirations of continuing their European qualifications. Their form indicates a lack of optimism in turning around results but against a similarly struggling side in Kyiv they may have the perfect opportunity to do so.
The side have been unable to keep a single clean sheet in their last 5 having conceded 9 during the same period, very poor viewing for the Fiorentina faithful. It hasn't been much better viewing in attack either as they have only been able to score 4 in their last 5.
Last 5 Dynamo Kyiv Games:
Kyiv have shown what can only been described as dismal form in their past few matches, the side have only been able to win a single game and lost the other 4 in the last 5. Their last game being a win may well provide optimism in the training camp but whether it will carry into Thursday's European tie is yet to be seen.
The side have been incredibly poor at the back being incapable of keeping a single clean sheet and conceding 8. Up front it has not been anymore pleasant viewing for the Kyiv fans as their side have only been able to net 4.

Football Park's Best Bet: Fiorentina to Win @ 1.44 - Our team of in-house betting tipsters have predicted a Fiorentina win in this fixture. Their superior form, home advantage, and head-to-head record justify confidence in this selection.
Albert Gudmundsson (Fiorentina):
The Icelandic forward has been one of the shining lights in an otherwise fairly dim season for the Firenze based club. He has been able to place himself second in the clubs top contribution leader boards for the Conference League with 1 goal and 1 assist in 3 games played.
Oleksandr Karavayev (Dynamo Kyiv):
Despite being a defender Karavayev is one of his sides leading attacking contributors in the Ukrainian League and has been crucial for any positive play by the side. In the domestic league he is the sides top contributor with 4 goals and 5 assists, highly impressive from a full back.
