Fiorentina are widely expected to line-up in a 4-3-3 system at Artemio Franchi tonight, with Mario Gomez leading the line, supported by Mohamed Salah and Joaquin.

Norberto Neto will play in goal, a controversial decision as the Brazilian has not played since deciding he will leave at the end of the season.

However, with Ciprian Tatarusanu injured, Montella’s hand has been forced.

Probable Fiorentina team to face Tottenham: Neto; Richards, Rodriguez, Savic, Alonso; Fernandez, Pizarro, Badelj; Joaquin, Gomez, Salah
