Paolo Vanoli shuffled the squad again, giving Mattia Viti, Pietro Comuzzo, Cher Ndour, Hans Nicolussi Caviglia, Amir Richardson and Edin Dzeko the chance to impress. Think Tommaso Martinelli, who remains on the bench despite assurances from the club that he will be cup goalkeeper this season, but at least we’ll see some different faces in midfield.

Igor Kostyuk also made a notable change, selecting Oleksandr Tymchyk at right-back instead of the in-form Oleksandr Karaev.
Don’t expect too much atmosphere either. It looks like only about 7,000 or so tickets have been sold for this game, which will make Franchi even more spooky than usual. We know there’s at least a human heart out there, though, so keep an eye out for Hsanka in the stands.
line-up
Florence (3-5-2): De Gea; Vitti, Comuzzo, Pangracic; Fortini, N’Dor, Nicolusi Cavilla, Richardson, Dodo; Dzeko
Dynamo Kyiv (4-3-3): Nesheret; Dubinchak, Zakhachenko, Tiare, Timchik; Shaparenko, Mikhailenko, Pikhalonok; Kabaev, Guerrero, Voloshin
