With the absence of Sissoko on the right, I don't think that we will see Grygera coming down the right as often as normal. And as soon as I say that, Grygera comes down the right and sends in a cross that is easily interecepted.

Napoli have an array of attacking options with Lavezzi, Maggio, Quagliarealla, Hamsik, Denis.

They all have distinctive styles.

We are now in the 10th minute at 0-0, but you can see that the scoreline won't stay that way at the end of the day. Both sides are being aggressive, and are attacking from the opposite sides of the pitch.

Juve, towards Gio's side of the pitch, Napoli, trying to take advantage of the absence of poulsen, and putting pressure on Grygera's side

We seem to be playing a 4-4-2 diamond.

Poulsen and Camoranesi are further up the pitch, Diego as playmaker and Giovinco is playing as a forward.

Camo seems to be the early protagonist for the attack today.

Crosses are coming in from both sides of the pitch but are no where close to hitting their targets. Diego has been invisible. Nothing is coming his way, the offense is not flowing through him at all, its all attack from the wings

Quick recap of the last 20 seconds.

Juve had the potential to string together several nice combinations but unfortunately it didn't come to pass. Camo and Grygera tried to connect on a give and go, but was disrupted, soon after Giovinco blasted one over the bar just outside the box.

You can see that there is some urgency to score early and often here.

2 notable players on the field have been very quiet so far. Diego and Quagliarella.

Juve maintaining a possession advantage. Camo trying to thread every pass between two defenders, with little luck, and napoli on the counterattack, but the ground pass from Lavezzi to Denis was just behind him, and caused him to lose posession. The middle of the pitch seems to opening up for Napoli
