| | Di Natale's wary of Zenit | Thursday 12 March, 2009 |
| Udinese striker Antonio Di Natale is expecting a real test against Zenit St Petersburg this evening.
The Zebrette are the last Italian team standing in Europe after they negotiated Lech Poznan in the last 32 of the UEFA Cup.
Pasquale Marino's men take on holders Zenit at the Stadio Friuli tonight and Di Natale isn't taking the game lightly.
“I don't know any of their players personally, but I know they are a strong team,” Di Natale said in Il Gazzettino.
“They were in the Champions League and they won this competition last year.
“The first leg is in Udine and it's the first time we have had home advantage in the opening game.
“It will certainly be a tough battle but we must take a positive result with us to St Petersburg. We will attack and try to score at least once.
“This tournament has become very important for us. If we progress in this tournament it will go into the history books and make our fans happy.”
