Juventus chief Pavel Nedved says they'll have plenty of time to prepare for their Europa League clash with Nantes.

Juve meet the French outfit for a place in the round of 16.

“Until the Round of 16, we will play in 2023 and there will be time to prepare well, it will serve both us and them," said Nedved.

“We coped well in the last game where we didn't concede a goal, there are too many injured players but those who have taken the pitch recently have done very well.

"We found players who will certainly be part of this Juventus. The return of established players will allow us to do much better, it could be not a cursed but a blessed break."
