Our Analysis: Form of Both Teams
Fiorentina's overall form has dipped after their strong performance in the league phase of the Europa Conference League. They lost 2-1 in the semi-final first leg in Spain last week and continue to struggle in the Serie A.
However, with a one-goal deficit, there’s hope that the Italian side can make it to their third consecutive Conference League final. That solitary goal from their captain, Luca Ranieri, means that La Viola only need to score once and keep a clean sheet to take the tie into extra time.
Meanwhile, Real Betis will come to Florence with confidence. This will be their first competitive game in the city, and a draw or better would send them to the final in Wrocław. They are in good form and look refreshed after signing Antony on loan from Manchester United.
After a comeback win in La Liga against Espanyol over the weekend, the visitors will be confident about their chances in the Conference League final.

Defensive Vulnerabilities
Fiorentina have scored 20 times and conceded eight across their six fixtures at the Stadio Artemio Franchi in the Conference League this term. In fact, four of those six games saw both teams find the net. This statistic will give Betis confidence in their attack.
The visitors have also scored a lot across this competition as they’ve netted in six of their last seven games. They also have a strong defence, so it will be up to the hosts to take the game to them. Therefore, expect both teams to score.

A Tight Affair
Fiorentina have a good home record in this competition, as they're unbeaten in 24 of the last 27 outings. However, they have struggled against Spanish opposition. In fact, yhey are winless in their last five in European semi-final games (D1, L4).
Still, it won’t be an easy game for Real Betis, especially since it’s their first visit to this stadium. However, they can protect their one-goal advantage. They haven’t lost in eight of their last nine Conference League games, so we can expect a tense game on Friday.
It’s worth noting that the hosts enter this game after two defeats, while the visitors are in great form, having won four in a row across all competitions. The match is nicely balanced, but it will likely end in a draw after 90 minutes, which could be enough for Betis to reach the Conference League final.
