Livorno coach Davide Nicola has said his side face a tough task against Juventus on Sunday.
Heading into the clash the Amaranto lie in 15th place in Serie A, and are looking to bounce back from a 2-0 defeat against Inter when they take on the champions at the Stadio Picchi.
“We’re going to be facing a team that has a precise idea of what their identity is,” Nicola told Rai 2.
“They play at a club where the only priority is to win – so it’s going to be a difficult challenge for us.
“We’re going to be playing a side that go out with a frightening intensity, but we hope what we’ve got will be sufficient.”
Nicola also heaped praise upon his counterpart, Antonio Conte.
“Conte, as a coach, is absolutely excellent,” Nicola said. “We all want to be at the same level as him.”
