“Nobody should get any illusions here. Up until we have secured the objective, our job will solely be to ensure safety. Don’t forget we reached Serie A via the play-offs.”

“I admire Giampiero Ventura very much, as he is a master of the style of football he uses. It’s a 4-2-4 where the wide men work a lot both in defending and attacking.
“I expect to feel the warmth of the Marassi crowd for this match. Eder is in training, but he missed five days and using him would be a risky decision. We’ll have to evaluate his condition.”
