“It won’t be the same [defence] because Alex Sandro has been out for two months,” Pirlo told Juventus TV. “He is still a bit tired, but he will come with us to Benevento.
“We are lucky that [Leonardo] Bonucci is back and trained with the group, while Cristiano is resting because he was a bit tired after so many games and we didn’t plan to bring him to Benevento.”
Aaron Ramsey returned from a muscle injury in the Champions League this week and played the last seven minutes of the 2-1 win over Ferencvaros.
“I see him as an attacking midfielder, he has surprised me,” Pirlo said about the former Arsenal midfielder.
“He’s an intelligent player who is always positioned well in all situations. I see him there because he’s very good at finding the spaces to play in.”

CR7 deservingly gets a rest. If team can't win matches against this level of competition then real sad state of Juve football going forward. Like the lineup above from pics except Arthur for Bent. Need to see Arthur hopefully distributing ball to any one of many scoring options at hand.
Remember Bent didn't play much at beginning of season and possibly Pirlo doesn't see as a 1st 11 quality player? Arthur > Bent in orchestrating an offense though Bent has defensive qualities Arthur lacks. IMO when playing these low level league squads offensive >>> defensive strategy should be prioritized. Nothing Juve should be worried about.
