The odds for the game offered by the mentioned bookmaker are as follows: 3.20 for a home win, with a draw at 3.40 and 2.25 for the victory of the guests.
The participation of the "Bianconeri" in the final of the competition is under serious question, because in the first leg Fiorentina beat them with 1:2, as with this defeat Juve conceded its first home defeat of the season. The other two teams are Lazio and Napoli, which hold draw in the first round.
Juventus will seek victory at any cost against Fiorentina to keep its chances for treble this season. The coefficient for "The Old Lady" to move forward is quite high - 10.00, which gives an eloquent lead to Fiorentina to participate in the final.
"Viola" is in excellent shape and for the past thirteen matches recorded only one loss. Vincenzo Montella`s team takes fourth place in Serie A, as still has a real chance to rank in the Top 3 and to participate in next season`s Champions League. In the last round Fiorentina beat Sampdoria with 2-0 at home.
Vincenzo Montella will not be able to rely on the injured Josip Ilicic, Pasqual and Stefan Savic.
The guests are also graduated with success over the weekend, beating Empoli with 2-0. Team`s confidence goes to a fourth consecutive Serie A title, as "The Old Lady" takes the first place in the league with 70 points in its assets, or 24 points more than second in the table. Coppa Italia for a long time escaped from Juve, as the last time when the "Bianconeri" won it was in 1994-1995 year.
Massimiliano Allegri will not be able to use Arturo Vidal, who was injured in the last match against Empoli. With him out from the scheme with various injuries are Paul Pogba, Claudio Marchisio, Paolo De Ceglie, Martin Caceres, Romulo and Asamoah. Pirlo is back in action after injuring his calf and is the holder. The attack probably will be entrusted to the duo Tevez-Morata.
Fiorentina hard will beat Juventus twice in a row, so our forecast via soccer predictions for this match is a victory for the champions.
