Club Brugge and Fiorentina are gearing up for a dramatic conclusion in the Europa Conference League, with a one-goal deficit separating the teams ahead of their clash at the Jan Breydel Stadium.

Last week’s encounter saw a thrilling five-goal contest between the two sides, with Club Brugge showing resilience to level the match twice before eventually succumbing to a 3-2 loss at the Stadio Artemio Franchi. Fiorentina capitalized on the 61st-minute sending off of Club Brugge’s midfielder Raphael Onyedika, culminating in M’Bala Nzola’s injury-time winner.

Hugo Vetlesen is poised to step in for the suspended Onyedika for Club Brugge, while Fiorentina will miss the services of attacker Riccardo Sottil due to a broken collarbone sustained in the first leg.

The hosts, Club Brugge, are set to line up in what is speculated to be a 4-2-3-1 formation, with notable players such as Simon Mignolet returning in goal and Ferran Jutglà operating on the wing. On the other hand, Fiorentina’s manager Vincenzo Italiano is expected to field his strongest lineup, featuring players like Lucas Martínez Quarta and Christian Kouamé in key positions.

Club Brugge (4-4-2): Mignolet; Sabbe, Mechele, Odoi, Ordońez; Skóraś, Vetlesen, Vanaken, De Cuyper; Igor Thiago, Jutglà
Fiorentina (4-2-3-1): Terracciano; Dodô, Milenković, Martínez Quarta, Biraghi; Arthur, Mandragora; González, Beltrán, Kouamé; Belotti

While live TV coverage may be unlikely, fans can tune in online through legitimate streaming platforms for the thrilling encounter. Any illegal streaming requests or links will not be entertained, ensuring a safe and enjoyable viewing experience for all fans.

As the tension builds for the decisive match, both Club Brugge and Fiorentina are primed to deliver an intense battle on the pitch, with fans eagerly awaiting the outcome of this gripping Europa Conference League semifinal clash at the Jan Breydel Stadium.
