Hearts know they realistically need to get a result in Florence to keep hopes of reaching the knockout stage alive.
Robbie Neilson's men faced the Serie A outfit at Tynecastle last week but it was a night to forget with Lewis Neilson handed a straight red card and the visitors running out 3-0 winners. They found the back of Craig Gordon's net just shy of four minutes on the clock and from that point on the points never looked in doubt.
But the duo go head to head once again this time in Florence on matchday four of the Europa Conference League with the Jambos looking to claim a historic result. They've already won on the road in this section with a 2-0 win in Riga against RFS to leave them third in the group with three points from three games. Fiorentina are one point further ahead with a massive 90 minutes set to be played at the Stadio Artemio Franchi.
