Juventus and Fulham clash tonight, in a highly anticipated Europa League match at the Stadio Olympico. Although the Italian giants are clear favourites to progress, Fulham upset holders Shakhtar Donetsk to reach the round of 16, ensuring manager Alberto Zaccheroni won’t be taking the Premier League side lightly.

“We know Fulham are tough," the replacement of Ciro Ferrara said on UEFA’s official website. "Moreover, on the Fulham bench sits Roy Hodgson, a wise man and an experienced coach. His teams are always well organised and play good football."

Juventus will be going into the match with plenty of confidence after their win over Fiorentina at the weekend, while Fulham will be hoping to push on after their draw against top four contenders Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.
