Revealed – Potential Makeup Date For Fiorentina Vs Inter Milan Serie A Clash As Viola Reach Conference League Round Of Sixteen

Fiorentina and Inter Milan could face off in Serie A on February 5th.

This according to Italian outlet FCInterNews. They note that it will depend on Inter’s Champions League fate, as Fiorentina have qualified for the Europa Conference League round of sixteen.

Fiorentina and Inter have a major headache with their postponed Serie A fixture.

Earlier this month, La Viola and the Nerazzurri kicked off a league match at the Stadio Artemio Franchi. However, just fifteen minutes in the teams stopped playing.

This was due to a medical emergency for Fiorentina midfielder Edoardo Bove, who has now fortunately recovered.

That has left a very open question regarding when Fiorentina and Inter will play the rest of the match. Until they do, they will each have the question of a game in hand lingering in the air.

The fact that both Fiorentina and Inter play in Europe this season has made it difficult to schedule their makeup match.

The two teams must find a date in midweek where neither is active in either European or domestic cup competitions.

Fiorentina are out of the Coppa Italia. But Inter are not.

In Europe, meanwhile, Fiorentina have qualified directly for the Conference League round of sixteen.

That means that the Tuscans will not need to play in a playoff round.

Therefore, the date of February 5th is free for Fiorentina.

The question, then, is whether it will be for Inter.

The Nerazzurri are in a strong position to qualify directly for the round of sixteen. If they do, then they too will avoid a European playoff round at the start of February.

In that case, there would be no reason why the two teams can’t get the match out of the way on the fifth.

On the other hand, Inter do still have work to do after their loss to Bayer Leverkusen last week.

If the Nerazzurri are to fail to finish in the top eight of the Champions League “league phase” table then they will have to play a playoff match for the round of sixteen.

In that case, February 26th would be a viable date for Inter to face Fiorentina.
