It really is hard to say. The upgrade can be painless, but there are
some services that have changed startup behaviour under systemd, and
they can get into some painful issues when reconfiguring. Mostly because
systemd handles dependencies differently from SysV init, and especially
because it does not blithely ignore failed dependencies.

You really are going to have to bite the bullet and build a test server.
