While Souček's start in the starting line-up was expected, West Ham coach David Moyes was slightly surprised by the deployment of Coufal from the start. Barák will start on the bench as expected, he was not even in the starting eleven in the semi-final matches against Basel and he missed the last match in Serie A due to temperature. Fiorentina striker Arthur Cabral will be the top scorer of the competition at the beginning of the match, but Luka Jovič has been given the lead instead.
The match in the sold-out Eden has kick-off at 21:00. Both teams will be aiming for their second major European Cup trophy and their first since the 1960s.
Starting Lineups:
Fiorentina:
strong> Terracciano – Dodo, Milenkovic, Ranieri, Biraghi – Ambarat, Mandragora – Bonaventura – González, Jovic, Kouamé.
West Ham: Areola – Coufal, Zouma, Adžuird, Emerson – Souček, Rice – Paquetá – Bowen, Antonio, Benrahma.
