Thats fixture list is about as good as you could hope for.

How do the UEFA Cup fixtures compare to the CL ones?

dont you dare...

 

[Red]

dont you dare...

Don't you want to know how tough Milan will have it?

 

[Alen]

If it makes you feel any better, Milan will play the last match of UEFA group stages on Thursday, 3 days before Juve-Milan.
But knowing their luck, they'll be free on that matchday or they will already have secured the qualification for the next round.

Don't you want to know how tough Milan will have it?

lol k i thought you were suggesting something else

 

[Alen]

Actually, no. I watched the wrong schedule.
Milan will play the last match of the group stages 4 days after Juve-Milan, not before.

 

[Red]

lol k i thought you were suggesting something else

Maybe I was...

 

[Holdon]

Wow, stuff start.

 

[Alen]

Damn it, now i saw how we will play if we qualify for the CL.
We'll be in pot 3 so our schedule will look like this :

1 round - Away to the team we'll get from pot 2
2 round - Home vs the groups outsider from pot 4
3 round - Home vs the group favorite from pot 1

And now....

3 days after Juventus-Roma we'll play away against group's favorite (round 4)
3 days after Inter-Juventus we'll play at home against the team from pot2 (round 5)
4 days before Juve-Milan we play away to group's outsider (round 6)

I'm less concerned about what it is like for games against the other big sides, as they will be in a similar situation to ourselves.

Games away to decent teams who don't have midweek games are the ones to avoid after the CL games.

 

[alex_bianconero]

Where can i see the whole schedule?

 

[Snoop]

where or when? It will be out around September, or end of August.

The fixture might look tough, but still, I've seen worse too.. Like playing to big teams and between them CL match. It all depends on the opponents to decide how hard it is.

 

[Christina]

Here it is ( look at the last 3 rounds of CL ) :
28.09 Sampdoria-Juventus
01.10 Champions Legue
05.10 Juventus-Palermo

19.10 Napoli-Juventus
22.10 Champions Legue
26.10 Juventus-Torino

These weeks might be a bit rough, but other than that I don't mind the fixtures.

I hope we come out extremely motivated against fiorentina. We must exact revenge at all costs, and I hope poulsen rips donadel a new asshole.
