This Juve formation makes no sense.

I mean, to rest Barzagli looks not really necessary, because against Malta none of the central backs had much work to do. It was a very easy game for them. Plus 4 days to rest. Anyway, ok. Give Caceres a shot.

In the rwb, Isla has just come back from a long injury, so Litch has to play.

I don't understand Giaccherini on the left. Why is De Ceglie in the squad then?

And resting Giovinco makes no sense... he's young and played the 2nd fixture for a couple of minutes. This game won't be easy, I'd rather have Giovinco on the pitch.

I think Vidal played only 1 game. Honestly, I think the 2 players that need this rest are Marchisio and Pirlo. we have to choose one to rest. I'd pick Pirlo.

so I'd go with Buffon - Caceres, Bonucci, Chiellini - Litch, Vidal, Marrone, Marchisio, De Ceglie - Giovinco, Vucinic

In the 2nd half, take Marchisio out for Pogba/Asamoah.

Players who could really need a rest before the Chelsea-match, imo, are Pirlo and Marchisio. Maybe Vidal and Asamoah also, but at least give both of those beasts 45 minutes against Genoa. One beast in each half or something. Take a gamble and use Pogba instead of Pirlo. Leave Marchisio completely out of the match, because we need his inhumane, crazy running and workrate against Chelsea.

Giacherini would do just fine instead of Claudio!

Media reports said fit-again centre back Giorgio Chiellini may not be risked and midfielders Arturo Vidal and Kwadwo Asamoah will probably be rested, while up front Alessandro Matri is set to play alongside Mirko Vucinic in place of Sebastian Giovinco.
Juve's visit to London on Wednesday is followed by a home game against Chievo on Saturday Sept. 22 and then a clash at Fiorentina the following Tuesday.
