What do we know about the two teams?
Fiorentina
Just like the Europa League final last week between Sevilla and Roma, which the Spaniards went on to win via a penalty shootout, we are expecting another tight game between two strong teams.
Fiorentina’s defeat in the Coppa Italia Final and their eighth place finish in Serie A means the only way they can guarantee Europa League football for next season is by winning this competition.
Arthur Cabral has been impressive in their run to the final, and has the chance to become the competitions top scorer by passing Basel’s Zeki Amdouni in the golden boot race.
Fiorentina’s record in Europe is similar to West Ham, having only won a sole Cup Winners Cup in 1961 against Rangers. A win here would also be their first trophy since their Coppa Italia win in 2001 against Parma.
West Ham
As for West Ham, this crucial game see’s Vladimir Coufal and Tomas Soucek return home to their old stomping ground in their bid to win West Ham a first piece of silverware since their Intertoto Cup victory in 1999, with their FA Cup success back in 1980 as their last piece of major silverware.
West Ham have their best ever chance to become immortal at the club, which looks set to be dismantled with the departure of Declan Rice in the summer.
The English midfielder has been linked with a number of clubs, but the Hammers look set to cash in Rice, with just a year left on his contract. At the moment, he is a best price of EVS to join Arsenal, with the Gunners securing Champions League football for next season.
West Ham had flirted with relegation for large parts of the season but even though a good run of form allowed them to steer clear of the drop zone, many Hammers fans will want some improvement to their 14th place finish.
Should Rice leave, there will be an instant requirement to reinvest the revenues from the sale to continue their successes. However, for now, the fans of both sides are eagerly awaiting this tense final in Prague.
