Juventus are set to play Fiorentina at the Allianz Stadium on Wednesday in the second leg of the semi-final of the Coppa Italia.
Juventus come into this game on the back of a 1-1 draw against nine-man Bologna in Serie A. A second-half goal from Austrian attacker Marko Arnautovic for Bologna was canceled out by a goal from Serbian striker Dusan Vlahovic for Juventus. Bologna had French centre-back Adama Soumaoro and experienced Chilean centre-back Gary Medel sent off in the second-half.
Fiorentina, on the other hand, beat Paolo Zanetti's Venezia 1-0 in Serie A. A first-half goal from Uruguayan midfielder Lucas Torreira secured the win for Vincenzo Italiano's Fiorentina.
