“Higuain has a special bond with Juventus, so he is one of the most fired up in the group. I think he’s ready.

“We know Gennaro Gattuso’s character and he passed that on to us. In every game, we try to give our best, that is what he asks for,” Zapata told Milan TV.

“I try to give my contribution to the team, even if I don’t necessarily play, as I try to pass on my experience with words too.

“We are prepared to face a great Juventus squad and we’ll do everything to stop them. It’s interesting to see how we’ll be able to close them down.

“We know the quality we’re up against and it’s an extra motivation to play a great team. We have to get out there, enjoy ourselves and do our best.

“Having the stadium packed is a great help and we need our fans behind us. This side has humility, hard work and determination in every game.”
