Sad that Birindelli and Tudor aren't playing...they had great goals last year against Depor. classic line from the commentator last year after Tudor scores...."and Tudor struck an arrow into the heart of Depor...."

THIS IS AWSOME!

Oh good idea Forza_La_Juve

Here are the goals from last year's fixtures with Depor

We seem to like scoring pretty goals against them

One of my all-time favourites, Birindelli's screamer to make it 2-1 ****
Nedved's bouncing drive, 2-2 **

Ferrar's crashing header, 1-0 ***
Trezeguet's lucky deflection and cool finish, 2-2 *
Tudor's awesome volley to make it 3-2 ***

 

[Dominic]

Haha that comment at Tudor's goal:

Tuuudorrrr, Igorrr Tuuudorrrr.

 

[simpson-juvefan]

hoi

tomorrow it will be again Depor - Juve I can't wait for this match, i think the key will be if our defense, and if we are able not to let in to many goals!!!

I think this match will show where we are standing, i am very optimistic about the game and i think that we are going to win in Riazor or at least a draw!!

Tudor is defenetly out of the trip and what is with birindelli?

how will our defense be looking?

will we are playing Iuliano (the Bologna man) or Montero or Ferrara?? i don't know!!

i would play......Thuram-----Ferrara------Legro------Zambro

i hope that Maresca gets the Chance to start i think he is doing really well, but i don't believe that Micco will get a chance and i hate it he could be so useful against Depor!!!

ok lets see it tomorrow, i'm really nervous!

my prediction:

1:1 or 1:2 for Juve

 

[Len]

Guys did DP and Neddy play well against Bologna?

If they did, I have good feelings about the Depor match that they are gonna deliver us good results. For us to do well in CL matches, DP or Neddy has to play well, they play a major part in it

 

[only_juve_4ever]

I thought Del Piero Played good. Nesved could have done much better and better contibrution.

 

[Juve100%]

Juventus will be without Enzo Maresca for the Champions’ League game at La Coruna tomorrow.

The in-form midfielder has withdrawn from the squad due to a back problem he picked up in the 1-0 win at Bologna. :frown:

 

[only_juve_4ever]

NOO!! I saw what happened,,, it looked painfull. DAMN IT, i was hopping nothing like this would happen;....

 

[Dominic]

SHIT! that's a major let down! Come one Enzo! I hope he will at least play against ancona and at home vs Depor..

 

[gray]

That's terrible news. Enzo would've been on quite a high after his good performances in recent weeks.

 

[Juvefreak]

Oh no! Enzo was great the last time.

He could have been important in the match...

Does anyone of you know who will miss of the Depo players??

DEPORTIVO CORUNA v JUVENTUS


Goalkeeper Jose Molina and holding midfielder Mauro Silva sat out training on Monday as a precaution but both should be fit for Wednesday.

Albert Luque walked out of that training session early after a heated conversation with Javier Irureta but the coach played down the incident and the Spanish international forward should play in a left-sided attacking role, behind Diego Tristan.

Juventus coach Marcello Lippi is hoping to have French striker David Trezeguet back to fitness after the former Monaco forward missed Sunday's 1-0 Serie A win at Bologna with a thigh strain.

Lippi has all his squad avaliable, except for the injured Croatian Igor Tudor, so Trezeguet will almost certainly partner Alessandro Del Piero in attack with Marco Di Vaio dropping to the bench.

In central midfield Alessio Tacchinardi and Ghanaian Stephen Appiah are favourites to start. Nicola Legrottaglie is set to partner Paolo Montero in the centre of defence with the experienced Ciro Ferrara starting among the substitutes.


Probable teams:

Deportivo Coruna: 1-Jose Molina; 12-Lionel Scaloni, 14-Jorge Andrade, 4-Noureddine Naybet, 3-Enrique Romero; 18-Victor, 6-Mauro Silva, 8-Sergio, 19-Albert Luque, 21-Juan Carlos Valeron; 9-Diego Tristan

Juventus: 1-Gianluigi Buffon; 21-Lilian Thuram, 23-Nicola Legrottaglie, 4-Paolo Montero, 19-Gianluca Zambrotta; 16-Mauro Camoranesi, 3-Alessio Tacchinardi, 18-Stephen Appiah, 11-Pavel Nedved; 10-Alessandro Del Piero, 17-David Trezeguet.

Referee: Gilles Veissiere (France)





montero maybe playing :stress: and partnering him is legro


juvefreak, i dont think depor have injury probs....they'll have the full-strength team

 

[Dominic]

Not the worst combination you can think of! Thuram has been playing in central defence for a couple of games now, keep him there.

I hope Maresca makes a miracle return .

 

[Lilianna]

i am sooooooo nervous baout this match...i haven't eaten all day and i doubt i will even tomorrow!!!!

we MUST win this...

 

[kaizer]

even a draw is not a disaster....or is it?

but to be safe, of course we need to win

 

[Layce Erayce]

wheres ferrara? id rather have him than montero. di vaio should be on the bench and so should miccoli.

i think thats possibly the best lineup we can possibly field.

 

[dpforever]

I believe Enzo's absence opens the door for Camoranesi. Appiah can take on the left side of midfield a la Davids, whereas Camo plays on the right. I really hope he keeps his form of Bologna, we really need it.
