The two will renew acquaintances when the Serie A champions take on the A-League All Stars at the ANZ Stadium in Sydney.
Although not currently attached to an Australian side, Del Piero, who spent 19 years as a Juve player, has been on Sydney FC's books for the past two seasons.
''For me this is something absolutely unprecedented, but this is true especially for Alex [Del Piero] considering that he was at Juve way before I arrived," he said.
"Under many points of view I think the fact that Alex will be facing Juventus is something really nice.
"That's why I really hope that this game will give us some interesting cues, that would make this close encounter even more romantic than what it already is.
"Obviously I hope that one of those cues is not Alex scoring past me.
"Basically, I really hope that he will play well and perform some of his old tricks as usual, but I hope he doesn't come to score against me.''
