If Viola were to finish eighth and win the Conference, ninth would qualify for Europe
Beyond the twinning and the obvious sympathies, now Torino must really support Fiorentina if they want to continue dreaming of Europe. On the one hand there is a complicated eighth place to reach (HERE are the calendars compared with the competitors), on the other, the possibility that even the ninth could guarantee qualification in the Conference League. Everything certainly depends first on the results of Juric’s team, which is still called upon to perform a small task, given that it must first recover 4 points from Napoli, then the ball would pass to Fiorentina.
Turin in Europe if it finishes ninth? It depends on Fiorentina
—
Given the new regulation for qualification for European competitions and the fifth place in the Champions League achieved through the UEFA ranking, there is a glimmer of hope that would guarantee Serie A to have 9 teams qualified for the next European cups. To make this happen, the scenario can only and exclusively be this: Fiorentina finishes eighth in the championship and wins the Conference League. Thus Viola would be qualified by right for the next Europa League and would free up a place for the 2024/25 Conference, where they would then finish ninth. In short, the arrangement is not the simplest. First of all because Fiorentina is ninth in Serie A and should overtake Napoli who they will challenge in two weeks. A lot will be known from that direct confrontation. It should always be kept in mind that Fiorentina has a game to recover against Atalanta and the match will probably be recovered at the end of the championship.
In all of this, Toro must recover the four points gap from Napoli if they want to dream of Europe. To do this they are practically obliged to close the season with 7 points between Verona, Milan and Atalanta, hoping that Napoli will score a maximum of 2. In the event of a tie on points at this moment Napoli would be ahead, given that the Neapolitans have a significantly better goal difference (+9 for Calzona’s team and 0 for Toro). This is why Europe is a real dream, but the direct clash between Fiorentina and Napoli could make everything open.
