The Viola are in fourth place and Hellas eighth, while the top six teams will qualify for Europe in Serie A this season.

Toni had two spells at Fiorentina, but at the end of last season he was released and offered only a job behind a desk.

The 36-year-old felt he could still play and proved it with a club record 16 Serie A goals so far this term for Verona.

He is supported by Marquinho and Juan Manuel Iturbe, while Romulo is on loan from the Viola, but is out with a last-minute injury.

Fiorentina have numerous injury problems, missing Giuseppe Rossi, Mario Gomez, Mati Fernandez, Massimo Ambrosini and Ante Rebic.

Alessandro Matri is dropped yet again in favour of young Brazilian Ryder Matos with Juan Cuadrado in a more advanced role.
