The garden is back, my friend. After the week of European cups, Juventus find the championship again, a competition in which they always manage to give something more. An aspect that is now undeniable, costing Antonio Conte a few more criticisms than expected from the Juventus fans themselves. But the coach goes his way, chasing the third consecutive championship and the record goal of 100 points in the standings. We'll only think about the Europa League and the difficult away match in Florence from tomorrow morning, today there's only time for Genoa. However, many turn up their noses in the face of such great love for the championship, especially in the face of a rather emblematic ranking.
The Lady has a 14-point lead over Roma, and even if the Giallorossi win the second half against Parma, almost nothing would change. Evidently, however, Conte does not trust and does not want to take anything for granted, not even now that the championship already seems dead and buried. There will certainly be a sort of turnover in Genoa, but only because of the injuries that deprived the coach of important men, such as Marchisio, Giovinco and Tevez. The midfielder was not a little worried on the eve, but the tests he underwent calmed spirits. “Fortunately I have nothing serious – explained Marchisio himself on Twitter. – Now a few days to recover and then we are back in operation”. The same goes for Giovinco, who came out battered after Thursday's match. For both, 10/15 days of stoppage are expected, therefore no Genoa and no Florence. Not even Tevez will be at Marassi, but more as a precaution than anything else. The Apache should be skilled and enlisted for the Europa League, a tournament that seems to excite the fans more than the club. In fact, from Corso Galileo Ferraris filters a prize that would have been agreed with the players in the event of 100 points, an objective that would undoubtedly give prestige, but not as much as the victory of a European Cup.
In any case, tonight Juventus will not spare themselves, as never before in the league. In goal there will obviously be Buffon, who will join Zoff with 476 appearances with the black and white shirt, in defense the very titular Barzagli, Bonucci and Chiellini, in midfield Lichtsteiner, Pogba, Pirlo, Vidal and Peluso, in attack Llorente and Osvaldo. Gasperini's Genoa will respond with the usual 3-4-3, with Perin in goal, De Maio, Burdisso and Marchese in defense, Motta, Bertolacci, Matuzalem and Antonelli in midfield, Konatè, Gilardino and Sculli in attack.
