Juventus and Parma have both been unable to break the deadlock in a goalless first half in their Coppa Italia tie this evening.

Giorgio Chiellini had the first opening for the visitors when his header from Andrea Pirlo's corner was blocked.

The hosts worked a chance of their own soon after, but Raffaele Palladino could only fire his strike over the bar.

Antonio Nocerino came close again for Parma just moments before the break, but his volley at the back post was blocked as the teams went into the break all square.
