“We’ve faced Juve several times, we know the results but every game teaches you something. We’re ready to play at the maximum, that’s the only way we have a chance of beating them.
“Allegri? He coaches a great team, but we want to win. I had hoped we could have done it last year, because we deserved it.
“I think we have the quality to do it in the future. It [the Coppa] is an objective.
“We haven’t been lucky in the draw, but these are opponents we must overcome if we want to get to the final.”
Pioli was then asked about his team for tomorrow, including the possibility of playing a trident of Felipe Anderson, Keita Balde and Antonio Candreva.
“I think everything is possible. We have diverse characteristics, we’ll choose the formula which gives us the best chance.
“Who plays isn’t important, what matters is that we stay in the game with determination and confidence for 95 minutes.
“We’re facing an opponent who is always ready to strike. It’s a one-off game, and we want to win.”
