According to La Stampa, Chiellini will miss the game against Napoli, Allegri will play with the back-four.

Yeah think we're getting beaten here, our squad has too many injuries, some players look dead on their feet too.

Gotta be 4-3-1-2 for this one.

I'm not so concerned about Chiellini missing this one as others. He's a big game player but also a player who likes a direct battle. The sort of attackers Napoli have don't suit him at all, he'd be faced with smaller technical players. Barzagli can go up against Higuain, Bonucci in his usual role, and Rugani to the right. Lichtsteiner will surely play that side so offers cover. On the left Alex Sandro would balance the side up more, but Barzagli needs less cover than Rugani would against Insigne. Sturaro will probably play anyway to help negate that.

And we will have good bench options with Zaza, Pereyra and Cuadrado.

yes, and that's probably why higuain only scored a single serie a goal against us. i'm fairly positive that we have a better team than napoli, but that's with chiellini on the field. he usually eats any striker alive, be it ronaldo, zlatan or cavani.

i still think we have a great chance to beat those garbage eating fuckers, but the absence of chiellini (and mandzu) could be crucial. both of them are very physical players, it's a nightmare to play against them by default.

btw those annoying injuries might just be the only reason why our scudetto is still hanging in the balance.

If healthy I can bet that Allegri will prefer Evra over Sandro as a better option in defense although Sandro is a better passer but as I pointed out Allegri will pick Evra and rightfully so.He is ultra solid in defense .If recover in time Alegri will pick Khedira over Sturaro.Quadrado is a must for this game having in mind his speed and versatility and his current form.

True.

Nicola Rizzoli will take charge of the Juventus game vs Napoli. He has refereed 31 games for Juve [14 W, 10 D, 7 L].
He is the best italian referee .

4-3-1-2 :tup:

The only question is will we play Pereyra at AM? I saw in his first minutes that he wasn't 100% ready. He looked sloppy and he didn't went fully. I hope he will be back soon and I hope also that Allegri don't play Hernanes as AM.
