[Serie A] Juventus vs Chievo (20 Viewers)
- Thread starter Chxta
- Start date
Well, it's fairly obvious what the squad will be tomorrow.
Abbiati
Zebina - Thuram - Cannavaro - Zambrotta
Camoranesi - Emerson - Vieira - Nedved
Trezeguet - Ibrahimovic
In reality we should win this game 3-0 because we always beat Chievo (except for almost not beating them last year) and their squad and coach is no better than last year's. Anything but a win would be quite pathetic.

Chiellini was not called because of a light injury this morning...
Ibra too had a light physical problem, but he was called for the match...
I think this will be our formation...

Pillon glad to open at Juve Saturday 27 August, 2005
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chievo boss Bepi Pillon couldn’t have asked for a tougher Serie A debut than to visit Juventus, but believes the underdog role suits them.
“It will be an incredibly difficult match, but it’s better to be thrown in at the deep end and immediately see what condition we are in,” said the tactician.
It will be a familiar trip back to Turin for former Treviso boss Pillon, who has no top flight experience on the bench.
“I grew up in the Juventus youth system for three years. These are times that really leave their mark on a person and I have very fond memories.”
Nonetheless, he must now face the Bianconeri and attempt to revive Chievo’s giant-killing reputation after a season in which they only just avoided relegation.
“We’ll see if we can stand up to what is possibly the best team in the world. Determination will be crucial, and that’s what we were lacking in our Coppa Italia exit to Brescia last week. We have to want this result above all else and believe in our chances.”
