Fiorentina’s head coach Raffaele Palladino is poised to make several changes to his lineup for Thursday’s match against LASK, bringing in cup goalkeeper Pietro Terracciano to replace David de Gea as part of a broader rotation for the European fixtures. Jonathan Ikone, who has emerged as the team’s top scorer in the Conference League with three goals, is likely to retain his starting position after recently making a rare appearance in Serie A.
Palladino has nearly all players available for selection, with the exception of Edoardo Bove, who is set to undergo surgery to have a removable defibrillator fitted following his cardiac arrest during the abandoned match against Inter.
On the opposing side, LASK will be without several key players, including goalkeeper Jorg Siebenhandel, who is suspended after receiving a red card in last month’s defeat to Borac in Bosnia. Veteran defender Jerome Boateng joins injured players Lenny Pintor, Tobias Lawal, and Moses Usor on the sidelines, although Filip Stojkovic returns after serving a domestic ban.
For LASK, either Marin Ljubicic or Austria international Maximilian Entrup is expected to lead the attack, supported by former Lazio player Valon Berisha. As both teams prepare for this crucial encounter, Fiorentina aims to leverage their home advantage while LASK seeks to overcome their injury woes and suspension challenges.
Fiorentina (4-2-3-1): Terracciano; Kayode, Martinez Quarta, Ranieri, Parisi; Richardson, Mandragora; Ikone, Beltran, Sottil; Kouame
LASK (4-2-3-1): Jungwirth; Stojkovic, Ziereis, Smolcic, Bello; Talovierov, Bogarde; Flecker, Zulj, Berisha; Ljubicic
