Juventus coach Andrea Pirlo is looking forward to facing Cesare Prandelli's Fiorentina.

Pirlo played for Prandelli when he was Italy coach from 2010-2014.

He said, “I have great memories with him, we reached a Euro final and we played a World Cup and a Confederations cup. We are both from Brescia and we know each other very well. He is a good coach and I am happy to see him tomorrow.

"Fiorentina are going thorugh tough times, but they are a very good team.

"They have a physical player like [Dusan] Vlahovic and one with great class such as [Franck] Ribery. They will defend deep and try to hit with counterattacks, we need to be careful."
