John Aldridge: Fiorentina Clash Will Be Tough Test

The Champions League trip to Fiorentina on Tuesday is going to be a real test for the Reds.

The Italians are going well in Serie A and are strong at home. They might have lost their first match away to Lyon but they fought hard after the sending off of Alberto Gilardino and only went down 1-0.

Fiorentina will be fired up and we’ll need to be at our best to avoid a repeat of what happened in Besiktas a couple of years ago.

The fact that we’ve got experience of playing against AC Milan, Inter and Juventus should stand us in good stead.

Whatever happens against Hull I hope Rafa doesn’t make many changes.

Aurelio and maybe Agger if he is fit could come back in but we need to get to 10 points as soon as possible.
