Simone Zaza will be cheering for Roma Coach Eusebio Di Francesco tonight, and believes his style of play “can cause problems for Atletico Madrid”.
The Italian international worked with the Coach at Sassuolo, and will be tuning in for his mentor’s Champions League debut tonight.
“I haven’t heard from Di Francesco,” Valencia striker Zaza told Sky.
“He and [Antonio] Conte are the Coaches who taught me the most though. I have great memories of him, I’m cheering for him, his team and his work.

“I’m sure they’ll have a good league season this year, and I wish him the best. He’s helped me so much as a footballer and a person.
“It will be a battle tonight, that’s how it was for me with Valencia too. His style of play can cause problems for Atletico Madrid though, even if that doesn’t detract from the fact it’ll be a difficult game.
“[Antoine] Griezmann is the player of theirs with the most quality, they’ll have to be careful, but not only of him. They [Atleti] are a very solid team.”
