Verona coach Marco Baroni outlines his tactical approach to Juventus, particularly the choice of two big centre-forwards supported by Ondrej Duda and some substitute options.
It kicks off at the Allianz Juventus Stadium at 19.45 UK time (18.45 GMT).

Hellas have made changes for the trip to Turin, using Duda as a trequartista supporting Milan Djuric and Federico Bonazzoli.
This is the 10th different starting XI in as many Serie A matches this season.
“This team has changed a great deal, we evaluated the new lads who arrived and I think tonight we need to keep the ball, so opted for two tall centre-forwards,” Baroni told Sky Sport Italia.
“Due to various situations, Djuric has not been in great shape, we also had other injuries, so being 10 rounds into the season we tried some different options.”
Isak Hien, Juan Cabal and Jayden Braaf are all out of action, so the defence is reshuffled.
Cyril Ngonge brings pace to the table and he is on the bench, perhaps with an eye to coming on against tired legs in the second half.
“I want to take some of the pressure off him. Ngonge had a good week in training, but now we have to think about football as not just a starting XI, but those who come off the bench. Juventus will start strong, so we need to hold out and Ngonge will certainly participate in the match.”
Verona have never won in their 32 previous fixtures away to Juventus and this season have just two points from their last seven games.
“We need to be united, solid, balanced and I always tell the lads that playing in a stadium like this against Juventus is an opportunity not everyone gets to experience. We have the utmost respect for Juve, but we intend to play our game.”
