It kicks off at the Zaglebiowski Park Sportowy in Sosnowiec at 17.45 GMT (18.45 CET).

You can follow all the build-up and action as it happens from this game and Roma vs. Bologna on the Liveblog.

The Viola came back from a goal down to win the first leg 2-1 thanks to a last-gasp Albert Gudmundsson penalty, so have a slender lead going to Poland.

They are also fresh from a morale-boosting 4-1 Serie A victory over Cremonese that took them away from the relegation zone.

Moise Kean returns to the starting XI, while Niccolò Fortini, Manor Solomon, Luca Lezzerini and Tariq Lamptey are injured.

Robin Gosens is rested after a knock to the ribs, as Harrison and Jacopo Fazzini complete the attack.

Marin Pongracic returns after missing the first leg through suspension, but is only on the bench.

It’s going to be an emotional day for Fiorentina, as it is two years ago that director Joe Barone died of a heart attack.

Rakow have never reached a UEFA quarter-final, so if they do manage to get past the Viola, it will be an historic event.

They’ve impressed in the Conference League so far, finishing second in the league phase, having won the Polish title in 2023.

Jonatan Braut Brunes was rested at the weekend to lead the line here, as he is the cousin of Erling Braut Haaland and scored at the Stadio Artemio Franchi in the first leg.

Lamine Diaby-Fadiga remains their top scorer in the Conference League this season with six goals in 12 games.
