Team News
Juventus
Napoli
- Antonio Conte should have pretty much the whole squad available, with Pepe being the only injured player.
- Marchisio and Buffon have had some fitness troubles with the national team, but Juve's staff should be able to have them fit for the match.
- If the midfielder can't recover in time, Giaccherini should be first in line to replace Marchisio.
- Mazzarri will not be able to call up Britos, but he can pick freely from the rest of the squad.
- Hamsik should keep his central position, and will probably be in charge of disturbing Pirlo's playmaking.
- Some players will only have a couple of days to prepare for the match after their fixtures with the national teams.
Inler was one of Napoli's best players, despite the fact that he should have accumulated 5 yellow cards in the match.
Inler is a disgrace however forza Juve!
Buffon and Vucinic is out and @berhin Napoli lost 3-0 to PSV with a second string team
vucinic is out
The wing back battles should be fun, along with the rest of the many matchups.
3-1 victory for Juve. Reasons: a) Juve are playing at home. b) With Chiellini back, Juve's ability to contain Napoli's counterattacking is much improved. c) Juve are consistent while Napoli are hot-and-cold. Case in point - 4-0 win against AIK followed by a 3-0 loss to PSV. d) Napoli's defense is overrated.
Dont see Juve losing. 1-1 draw.
This will most likely be a feast on the eyes.
