Raków Częstochowa finished second in the Europa Conference League group stage, earning direct qualification to the Round of 16. Their opponent in the next round is Italian side Fiorentina, who eliminated Jagiellonia Białystok in the play-off round.
Where to watch Fiorentina – Raków Częstochowa in the Conference League?
The Florence-based club has twice reached the Conference League final, falling to West Ham United in 2023 and Olympiakos Piraeus a year later. Last season saw them reach the semi-final stage. This tournament represents a key opportunity for Fiorentina to finally claim the title.
Fiorentina have experienced a turbulent domestic season, prompting a managerial change. Stefano Pioli was replaced by Paolo Vanoli several months ago. Recently, the club climbed out of the Serie A relegation zone for the first time in a while.
Raków currently sits fourth in the PKO BP Ekstraklasa table, four points behind league leaders Zagłębie Lubin. Like Fiorentina, the Polish side likewise made a change in the dugout this season, with Łukasz Tomczyk taking over from Marek Papszun, who moved to Legia Warsaw.
Should Raków overcome Fiorentina, they will face the winner of the Crystal Palace versus AEK Larnaca tie in the quarter-finals.
The Conference League final is scheduled for May 27th in Leipzig.
Live coverage and real-time updates of the Fiorentina – Raków Częstochowa match will be available on Polsatsport.pl, starting at 9:00 PM.
