Juventus will take Zenit St Petersburg clash seriously

Despite already having qualified for the knockout stages of the Champions League, Claudio Ranieri's Juventus will take tomorrow's trip to Russia lightly. Zenit will be desperate for a win as it still maintains hope of overcoming Real Madrid for the second qualifying place from the group.

"We know all about the difficulties that await us," Ranieri told the Italian media prior to flying out of Turin.

"I watched Zenit's last game against Spartak Moscow and I saw a very good team in form who will push us hard to try and reach the last 16.

"We will try and adapt to the low temperature and I will have to consider whether to select certain players, such as Mauro Camoranesi.

"But I don't think I will change the midfield duo for tomorrow's game."
