“The memory of what happened is always in our minds and we’re playing for the victims of the Ponte Morandi disaster,” Samp defender Murru told Sky Sport Italia.

“Fiorentina play well, but we’ll have our say again. It’s a difficult game and we hope to bring home the three points.”

The Viola give Marko Pjaca his first start for the club after his loan from Juventus.

“I am more worried by the team as a whole rather than individual players.”
