A tough game but i cant believe people are talking about Juve like their world beaters.

They've had a good start to the season but lets not forget they have drawn their last two games.

We are improving, have won our last two games and Zlatan is back.

We we could at least get Prince back for this game it would be a great help.

Hmmm after watching juve against Catania i am quite confident conte will play a 4-2-4. He tried a 4-2-3-1 against Catania and it backfired because they dont have a proper playmaker to play behind the strikers (apart from other reason).He tried Vidal as CAM i am guessing because of his reputation as an assist machine at Leverkusen but he was quite toothless. So as far as I see it he will be forced to play 4-2-4 this game and I think that may prove advantageous for our team. If the likes of Seedorf , Ibra , aquilani are given space in mid field they can do some major damage and add to the fact that juve defense hasnt been very impressive i can see us imposing ourselves on them. Just need to ensure that we have Vucinic under control and rest will take care of itself.

RossoneriBlog: Kevin-Prince Boateng, Massimo Ambrosini and Daniele Bonera all have good chances to be fit for the game with Juventus.

Juve vs Catania was the only game of them I watched and I'm not impressed at all. As far as form is considered in a derby (usually it doesn't matter much), there's no big difference there I think.

My real worry is tiredness, team is fading physically at the end of games with all those games in a row and even Allegri talked about it.

Again I think the team should play for the 1 x 0, be extra careful in defense and do the basics well (most of all avoid to concede stupid goals). I guess Juve will try to attack us, but they will have trouble to hold possession and they will problably concede space for us to counter.

I have a feeling we are rushing KPB back from injury again, just like we did against Spurs and Barcelona (ended up getting injured again after both games)

excellent news that boateng could play in this match..he will be slotted back into the AM role, behind Ibra.Cassano..would like to have Nocerino and Aquilani playing from the start as well..going to be exciting to see how allegri starts to change things once we get all of our players back from injury..and loving the fact that mexes is almost 100%, because he will be key in the back to give nesta rest time, for league play and CL..

Both robinho and boateng would have been more than welcomed for this one. Their movement would be a great weapon against juve especially if conte plans on to use marchiso + pirlo in a 424.

Shame we have no wide player to exploit their shit left flank.

Seems pretty solid to me.

And considering all our injuries, I think it will be a close game...

not quite my friend..my brother is a juve supporter, so i am constantly caught up with news from their camp, and what not, and not to long ago after Vidal arrived, conte was reported in saying that having Vidal is kind of a problem, but not a bad problem..he has, and can be played anywhere in the midfield, as well as being slotted in back in defense, without any issue..that right there is a great thing when it comes to injuries and what not, but deff. not good when your constantly moving a player around and not having a steady role for him..Vidal is a solid player anywhere he is put on the field, which makes him dangerous, and very useful..

Do you guys think Allegri will trust Taiwo to start this one?

I really dont want to see Antonini vs Krasic :o

Agreed on the antonini but honestly I wouldn't mind seeing T.T get a start in this one..he needs to get more time in to get adjusted..he seemed very on edge and shakey last weekend in his first official start..given more time I believe he will become the player we need at LB..

he is a versatile player but his versatility was being overplayed or misunderstood in that catania game. I mean CAM? It just went into enforcing the point that Juve really have no creative outlet other than Pirlo. He can slot into any defensive roles but i dont think he can slot into creative roles.

Edit: Personally if Abate is playing and Elia is playing as well i would like to see Zambrotta start if not injured to keep Krasic quiet. Elia will probably shoot himself in the foot. Abate should have no issues moving forward and dealing with him defensively.

I see what your saying my friend..at AM he shouldn't be played but your right they really don't have any creative players.

I doubt it. Taiwo is only just returning from injury and he hasnt settled into the team yet.

I would suggest Zambrotta will start and for me this is the best option at the moment.

I'm gonna be pissed if a) we lose b)Pirlo plays well,honestly we should know how to render him ineffective ....Fatigue IMO is the major concern ,great news to have KPB back ,but having VBommel and Dorf playing so much minutes vs Plzen might take a chunk out of our ass

I would go with something like this

-------Ibra----V2--------
-----------Urby----------
-Dorf-------VB----Aqui---
----------Defense--------

I think Jube will most likely lineup without a recognized ball winner and we need to take advantage and retain as much possession as possible ......Noce and KPB would make great impact subs depending on the situation ...

Will be interesting to see what Conte does ...I would opt for Pirlo and Krasic on the bench ....We will tire and that duo could be potential match winners

The stadium will be full. Juve will make so much money from this stadium. Is not good to think about it.

About the game.. we have team to beat them there.

Juve must be big favourites because they dont play in CL.
We have played twice as many matches as them and with same players.

They are gonna be really tired and our injury problem does not make it better.
