ROME, Oct 28 (Reuters) - Former giants Napoli held Bari to a 1-1 draw in the second round of the Italian Cup on Thursday to set up a clash with Juventus in the last 16.
Napoli entered their second-leg match in Bari with a 1-0 lead from the first leg between the southern rivals. They fell behind to a goal from Swede Daniel Andersson in the 59th minute but equalised through former Fiorentina midfielder Anselmo Robbiati to seal a 2-1 aggregate victory.
Napoli, who last won the cup in 1987 when Diego Maradona was at the club, will take on nine-times Italian Cup champions Juventus over two legs in December.
In Thursday's other match, Cagliari won 4-1 at struggling Serie B side Genoa to earn themselves a third-round encounter with holders Parma.
League champions AC Milan will play Serie B leaders Atalanta Bergamo, 1998 Cup winners Lazio have a relatively easy tie with Serie B's Ravenna, Inter Milan face Bologna and Fiorentina play Perugia.
Under the new Italian Cup format, the top eight finishers from last season's championship are awarded a bye to the third round.
