Lazio coach Simone Inzaghi insists they're capable of beating Juventus in the Coppa Italia final.

The pair face-off on Wednesday night.

"We know this is a very important match for us, one that we earned on the field, because nobody has gifted us this chance," said Inzaghi.

“We've had some great performances, beating Genoa, Inter away and the two-legged semi-final with Roma. We'll have our say.

“What I asked of my players is to have no pressure and play with the usual humility. On paper, Juventus are favourites, but in a one-off match, anything can happen. We need the perfect performance."

He added: “What matters is that we're facing a side of champions who deserve all their success, deserve compliments – which we personally gave them when meeting with The Pope today – but having said all that, football is strange and anything can happen in a one-off match.

“Juventus have no problem in sitting back and defending, which is when they are very difficult to break down, so we must be intense, aggressive, determined and run hard, otherwise you can't win these games."
