Chievo
Juventus
- Coach Corini will keep his 3-5-2 that can turn into a 5-3-2 when not in possession.
- Since both Sardo and Dramè are not available, Frey and Jokic are pretty certain to play on the flanks.
- Pellissier is injured, so Thereau and Paloschi are confirmed once again.
- Conte will be missing a whole host of key players for different reasons: Chiellini, Bonucci and Vucinic are suspended, Marchisio is injured and Asamoah is still playing at the AFCON.
- Therefore, Marrone and Caceres will start in defence, Pogba in midfield and Quagliarella up front.
- Antonio Conte himself will not be able to sit on the bench since he's been banned after the match with Genoa.
It was great seeing the majestic Andrea "Jesus" Pirlo pulling the strings again. Onwards and upwards!
tm 2.5
my prediction 1-2 (Pirlo and Giovinco)
Let the turnaround begin. After a terrible marked by a Coppa Italia elimination and mounting number of injuries, Juve will get back on track starting this game. Juve win 3-1. Anelka comes in late and scores the 3rd goal.
