Juventus will be greeted by a sold out Enzo Scida Stadium when they visit Crotone on Tuesday, although the hosts will have a slightly different look than usual.
To commemorate the fact that Italy’s most successful club will be visiting them for the first time in 80 years, the Rossoblu have made a slight adjustment to their shirts.
Just to the right of the club badge is the date of the match and the names of the two sides stitched on to the shirt.
As if that wasn’t enough, fans were willing to wait in line for up to 14 hours to find a ticket for the midweek round and the town has gone crazy in view of the Old Lady’s arrival.
The local hospital, located above the stadium, could have offered a privileged spot for the supporters who were not able to buy one of almost 10,000 tickets available.
However, the decision has been taken to close the building at 3pm on Tuesday, to avoid a mass invasion in the attempt to find a spot to see the match from the windows.
Juventus, who won their first Serie B match against Vicenza in their home debut, will hope that David Trezeguet (pictured) keeps up his goal scoring form after his first Serie B strike in that game.
“I will fight with my teammates to immediately take Juventus back to Serie A – the fans need to trust me,” said Trezeguet, who is now the top foreign scorer in Juve’s history.
“I’m very happy I scored the opener in the difficult match against Vicenza. I’m honoured to have reached this personal milestone and to have been presented the award by the club here at the Olimpico.
