Most recent H2Hs: First time to meet each other
These two teams have never met before and Fiorentina have only played against Cyprian teams once before, which was actually earlier this month in the Conference League, when Viola lost to APOEL 2-1.
On the other hand, Pafos FC have met four times with Italian teams and have lost all four of those games.
Fiorentina preview: Can they keep their great form running?
With nine wins in their last 10 games in all competitions, Fiorentina have been quite impressive lately. Thanks to this great run and seven wins in a row in Serie A, Fiorentina are now just one point behind currently league leaders Napoli. With a couple of wins in the Conference League, Viola are on a good way to securing the knockout stages of the competition in which they've played two finals in a row, losing both.
When it comes to team news, Fiorentina's captain Cristiano Biraghi and Amir Richardson are out with injuries, while Albert Gudmundsson is questionable.
Predicted lineup: Terracciano (GK), Kayode, Moreno, Martinez Quarta, Parisi, Adli, Mandragora, Ikone, Bove, Sottil & Kouame

Player to watch: Jonathan Ikone
The French forward has been in great form in the Conference League, scoring three goals to help Fiorentina get six points from three games. Given that he's failed to yet score in the Serie A, where he usually comes in off the bench, he'll look to prove himself again in the game against Pafos FC.
