Get ready for the return leg of the Europa Conference League Round of 16 between Sivasspor and Fiorentina. This should be an interesting match and this preview contains everything you need to know. Read on!

Fiorentina have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 2800 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Sivasspor and Fiorentina.

Sivasspor form and stats

Sivasspor was eliminated in the play-offs last season in the Europa Conference League. København was too strong.

Sivasspor's struggle is real here at Yeni Sivas 4 Eylül Stadyumu with only 11 points collected from 11 Super Lig games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 2-5-4. On the other hand, in the Europa Conference League, Sivasspor has performed like this (both home and away): 3 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses.

The regulars are hoping that Sivasspor will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 0-3 away loss in the match against Istanbulspor (after extra-time). Keïta (midfield) was the top team player in that game with a rating of 6.83/10. Keïta had 72 successful passes (of 80 total).

Before that game, a defeat in the away fixture against Fiorentina (after extra-time) in the Europa Conference League.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Sivasspor as they have a new game in only three days, a Super Lig match thankfully also at home. Ankaragucu are visiting.

Sivasspor are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 12 goals in 11 games. It's worth mentioning that 7 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Sivasspor have conceded 13 in these home matches.

Fiorentina form and stats

Playing away, Fiorentina have won 4 games, drawn 3 and suffered 6 defeats in the Serie A this season. The mentioned statistics is only from the league, looking at the Europa Conference League stats, they have 8 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss both home and away.

332 minutes! That's how long the Fiorentina goalkeeper Pietro Terracciano and his defense have shut out their league opponents.

Two away matches in a row for Fiorentina, whose manager Italiano could celebrate last time after the win against Cremonese (after extra-time). Midfielder Mandragora was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 8.23. Mandragora scored one goal, served one assist, hit two key passes and had 26 successful passes (of 32 total).

A home win as predicted against Sivasspor (after extra-time) before that, in the Europa Conference League.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Lecce in just three days.

They concede less than a goal on average per away game (12 so far). There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 0 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.

Head 2 Head

Sivasspor and Fiorentina have met before this season: Fiorentina - Sivasspor 0-0.
