*Group 9*: Lech Poland v Fiorentina

Lech Poland v Fiorentina

UEFA Europa League

Welcome to the INEA stadium. Cue various jokes about this being the IKEA stadium, the In-Ear stadium or even the In-Year stadium. Whatever you call it, plenty of teams have come here and learnt a harsh lesson. This is an intimidating stadium and we are going to get a harsh time.

Our resident Pole, Jakub Blasczykowski knows all about Lech. “It’s special for me to come and play in Poland, I’ve played abroad for 10 years but every time I come back I’m very happy. We have beautiful stadiums here, I am proud to be able to play in my country".

Sousa and Fiorentina are losing ground on the Europa League after not having won enough games and our prize money looks rather smaller than it usually does this time of the year.

It's great that we're getting it together in Serie A, but given that our target is the title or Champions League football, it is important that we learn to play in two major competitions in a week. We have had practice, regular practice, over the last three years. We are no stranger to dual competition.

Let's get it together and qualify from this group.
