Juve flying without wings Friday 4 February, 2005
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
League leaders Juventus are facing a winger shortage ahead of their crucial trip to Palermo on Saturday.
The Bianconeri could be without three wide midfielders after Mauro Camoranesi (pictured) became the latest doubt.
Pavel Nedved and Olivier Kapo are definitely out, given that the Czech ace is recovering from a knee injury and the Frenchman picked up a thigh strain in the 1-0 loss to Sampdoria.
But Camoranesi may also be missing after the Italian international, who has been in sparkling form of late, collected a slight calf muscle problem.
Boss Fabio Capello is now likely to start with Ruben Olivera, who missed the Samp game through suspension, on the right.
He will also probably be forced to play Gianluca Pessotto at left-back, allowing Gianluca Zambrotta to advance into midfield.
It also seems certain that Zlatan Ibrahimovic will start in attack, even if it is unclear who will be relegated to the bench between Alessandro Del Piero and David Trezeguet.
