West Ham vs Fiorentina lineups
David Moyes is likely to continue with the 4-2-3-1 formation which has led West Ham to this stage in the competition. The players have had plenty of rest and should be more than prepared for the final.
Gianluca Scamacca is set to be the only absentee for the Hammers as he recovers from a knee injury. Moyes will probably go with the same starting 11 which got the job done in both legs against Alkmaar.
West Ham (4-2-3-1, right to left): Areola (GK) — Kehrer, Zouma, Aguerd, Cresswell — Soucek, Rice — Bowen, Paqueta, Benrahma — Antonio
- Injured: Scamacca
- Suspended: None
Vincenzo Italiano prefers to set his Fiorentina side up with the 4-3-3 formation and could have every outfield player available for selection.
Salvatore Sirigu is sidelined with an Achilles tendon injury while Gaetano Castrovilli is a doubt due to a possible problem with his knee.
Fiorentina (4-3-3, right to left): Terracciano (GK) — Dodo, Milenkovic, Igor, Biraghi — Bonaventura, Amrabat, Mandragora — Ikone, Cabral, Gonzalez
- Injured: Sirigu, Castrovilli (doubt)
- Suspended: None
West Ham vs Fiorentina odds
The bookmakers are expecting a very even match between the two sides in the final, with a penalty shootout a very possible outcome. It could be very similar to the Europa League final between Sevilla and Roma last week.
