Fiorentina vs Pisa team news and expert analysis
The Florence club produced decent performances in the Europa League last season, but only managed to escape the relegation zone in Serie A after changing managers, eventually finishing fifteenth with 42 points. However, they made a poor start to the new campaign under Tedesco, suffering heavy defeats without scoring. Vanoli was subsequently brought back as head coach, and Fiorentina immediately won, although the victory came against newcomers Venezia.
Pisa spent last season in Serie A, but collected just 18 points and finished bottom by a considerable margin. Back in the country's familiar second tier, they also began with a defeat, but then beat Catanzaro and Juve Stabia. They lost to Virtus Entella in their next match, and did so heavily, 1-4.
De Gea and his teammates made a strong start to their cup campaign, thrashing their opponents 4-1, although they were up against modest Benevento. Their opponents drew 1-1 with Empoli but then won the penalty shootout.
