Stefano Pioli replaced Paulo Sousa this summer on the Viola bench, but there are had been strong reports Maran was in the running.
“Those were just rumours and I am very happy to have stayed as the Coach of Chievo,” said Maran in his Press conference.
“We know that we’ve got to raise our game against sides like Fiorentina and their current status in the table does not reflect their quality.
“We’ve got to be ready and I like how alert the forwards are at the moment, because they make it easier for the rest of the team too.
“Riccardo Meggiorini and Massimo Gobbi have not recovered, but Nicola Rigoni is in the squad.”
Chievo squad for Fiorentina: Confente, Seculin, Sorrentino; Bani, Cacciatore, Cesar, Dainelli, Depaoli, Gamberini, Tomovic; Bastien, Birsa, Castro, Garritano, Gaudino, Hetemaj, Radovanovic, Rigoni; Inglese, Leris, Pellissier, Pucciarelli, Stepinski
