Alessandro Del Piero starts his final game for Juventus in tonight’s Coppa Italia Final against Ezequiel Lavezzi’s Napoli.

The two sides go head-to-head at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome, kick-off 20.00 UK time.

Juve can do The Double after securing the Scudetto and count on departing captain Del Piero alongside native Neapolitan Marco Borriello.

Antonio Conte mirrors Napoli’s 3-5-2 system, though Giorgio Chiellini and Paolo De Ceglie are injured, while Marcelo Estigarribia gets the nod ahead of Simone Pepe.

Marco Storari has played in the Coppa throughout this season, so is given the gloves for the Final too.

Napoli have not won the Coppa Italia for 25 years and their last piece of silverware was in 1990, so expectations are high.

Walter Gargano sits out a ban, but Lavezzi returns to the starting XI after he was dropped in recent weeks.

It means Goran Pandev moves to the bench, as Marek Hamsik and Edinson Cavani complete the Three Tenors.

Cavani has not played for two weeks, as he was suspended for the last Serie A game of the season.

Blerim Dzemaili and Juan Camilo Zuniga complete the midfield, chosen ahead of Andrea Dossena.

Juventus: Storari; Barzagli, Bonucci, Caceres; Lichtsteiner, Vidal, Pirlo, Marchisio, Estigarribia; Del Piero, Borriello

Napoli: De Sanctis; Campagnaro, Cannavaro, Aronica; Maggio, Dzemaili, Inler, Hamsik, Zuniga; Lavezzi, Cavani
