Line-ups: Fiorentina-Juventus

Juventus have Giorgio Chiellini on the bench for their big trip to Fiorentina tonight, as Alessandro Matri and Mirko Vucinic take on Amauri.

The Bianconeri need a victory to keep up with Serie A leaders Milan and are without Andrea Barzagli, while ex-Viola defender Chiellini is only fit for the bench.

The forward line picked by Antonio Conte for this grudge match is Matri, Vucinic and Simone Pepe.

Fiorentina have to do without the injured Stevan Jovetic, Dias Felipe and Per Kroldrup, while Valon Behrami failed to shake off a knock and is another late addition to the injury list.

Amauri has a particularly special game, as he hopes to score his first goal in a Viola jersey against the club he left under bitter circumstances in January.

Fiorentina fans have turned up wearing wigs to mock Juventus Coach Conte’s hair.

Fiorentina:Boruc; Cassani, Natali, Nastasic, Pasqual; Olivera, Montolivo; Lazzari, Vargas, Cerci; Amauri

VUCINICC!!!!
FORZA JUVE!!

Heh they are defending with 10 men and they still let Vucinic to shoot twice.. Hit the post and now goal, awesome!

we need a second one...just in case bon-bon pulls a "bonucci".

cerci gets red...game..set..match!

wtf lol cerci is retarted do you guys think he deserved a red?

that was NOT a red card - im sorry

We got lucky there

I say it time and time again - we should NOT be complaining of referees

It was really stupid from Cerci, off the ball incident and violent conduct but I don't think I'd give a red for that.

Anyways, I hope this will end this referee bullsh*t thing finally, getting boring.

great - No Lichsteiner for the match against Inter... NOT what we need

VIDAAAALLL!!!

Hahahahah that was a really epic celebration from Vidal!! omg

DUE XZERO!! JUVENTUS! THE CHILEAN!

i missed the incident..but espn commentators say it was idiotic from him..and deserved it

goal vidal!!

he deserved a yellow
it did NOT deserve a straight red

Cáceres as RB. Bonbon Chiellini mid, I think its obvious.

pitty elia, krasic, marrone or esti not on the bench.
