Serie A Season Decider

Juventus' following fixture was the second leg of the Coppa Italia semi-final game against Fiorentina. The match kick-off was at 8:45 PM, on Tuesday, 7th April, just three days after Juventus' game against Empoli.

During the first leg of the Coppa Italia semis held in Turin, Juventus defeated the team from Florence by a score of 3:0, with Zachary scoring a hattrick. As of now, they would again play another leg of the semis at Fiorentina's home ground to decide which one of the two teams would qualify for the 2015 Coppa Italia finals.

In the case of Juventus, there wasn't much pressure associated with that very game due to their three-goal advantage from the first leg. As such, Coach Massimo Allegri decided to rest some of his players in preparation for the upcoming busy schedule that included a season-deciding Serie A away fixture against Parma the following Saturday and the vital UEFA Champions League quarter-final against Real Madrid the Tuesday after.
