“Tomorrow we are facing a very strong side like Fiorentina,” said the Coach in his Press conference.
“They play beautiful and efficient football that is very technical, and therefore difficult for opponents to break down.
“It will take another great achievement from us after beating Inter. They are missing some players, but that doesn’t reduce the quality of their squad.”
The Viola are without the injured Borja Valero, Giuseppe Rossi and Mario Gomez, though Alessandro Matri should be fit again after scoring a brace on his debut against Catania.
