Fiorentina have a strong chance to bounce back from their defeat in Greece.

Looking at Panathinaikos’ performances, they have often struggled in away matches. One clear example was their trip to Iceland, where they labored for 90 minutes to create clear scoring opportunities and ultimately suffered a 2-1 defeat against a team made up of semi-professional players.

In the first leg against Fiorentina, Panathinaikos showed an improved performance in a thrilling five-goal encounter. However, a deeper look at the statistics suggests they were not in control for the full 90 minutes. At one stage, they even allowed Fiorentina to erase a two-goal deficit.With this in mind, Fiorentina will be confident in their ability to turn the tie around, especially at home, where they remain unbeaten in their last five Europa League matches, winning four of them. Their strong home form, combined with Panathinaikos’ struggles on the road, sets the stage for a potential comeback.
