Marko Marin is given his first start in a Fiorentina jersey since arriving on loan from Chelsea over the summer and can finally show what he can do.

He acts in a trequartista role to support Khouma Babacar, resting Mario Gomez for this weekend’s Serie A game with Cagliari.

Vincenzo Montella also appears to return to three at the back, although that can mutate during the tie with Juan Manuel Vargas going into a full-back role.

The Tuscans have won just one of their total six matches on French soil, picking up two points from the last four attempts.

However, the Viola are unbeaten in their last eight European away fixtures, winning six.

Guingamp are considerably stronger on home turf, winning both their Group K games this season.

They are in the competition after becoming the surprise winners of the French Cup last term.
