I really hope we don't see the classic lineup with Llorente-Tevez in front again. Tevez especially needs some rest. Coppa is perfect for giving some of our squad playing time and testing out some things, but managers can be very intransigent with how they handle squad rotation even for Coppa. I wouldn't be averse to resting Pogba either, problem being we don't have anyone to take over.
Storari, Pereyra, and Morata will start. One or both of Coman and Giovinco will maybe start as well. Allegri will rest Buffon, Bonucci, Lichtsteiner, Marchisio and Tevez.

I would seriously start Pepe over Vitale. Not only he is more experienced but ready to play and we all know he is a workhorse.
It will be more balanced to ask th3 mids to cover ground and recover, which im pretty sure they are more than capable of doing (pepe, Pereyra and Pado are all about work)..... and let the trio in front of them carry the attack on their own.
That way we dont risk much and stay compact. Remember we will play with a bunch of bench warmers who are rusty as hell and do not play together. I dont know if Hellas will play some of their best players from the first team..so we need to be cautious to not underestimate just in case.
