Forbidden to make mistakes. The first match of the Monday night (19 pm) will see Juventus take the field, who will receive Livorno in their own stadium. A match that in itself would not seem to hide many pitfalls, were it not that the Tuscans need points and above all that Roma are at minus 5. "The pressure will be all on them" provoked Garcia after his team's victory, and actually tonight the Lady will not be able to play it lightly. The advantage in the standings remains quite important, but the margin of error is very small compared to a few weeks ago. In short, the best Juventus will be needed at the Stadium, the one admired in the first months of the season.
In fact, in recent times the bianconeri, despite winning almost all the games, have shown some signs of fatigue. All expected, because the European matches weigh but now we have to grit our teeth and get to the end. Antonio Conte knows this well, determined to close the games for the title as soon as possible. The coach, still silent on the press regarding the eve of the championship, has tried to work a lot on his head. On the other hand, in a busy period like this there isn't time to act on legs and tactics. Destiny of those who must always win, in Italy and in Europe.
However, the away match in Lyon was managed with great maturity by a team that took the full prize without rushing too much, which induces optimism in view of tonight. At the Stadium, Juventus will play with the best formation and the turnover will be moved to Thursday, when the French arrive in Turin for the return match. Despite the recoveries of Ogbonna and Peluso, the defense will be the one already seen in Lyon, with Caceres, Bonucci and Chiellini protecting Buffon's goal. In midfield, Vidal absent due to disqualification, it will be Marchisio's turn again who will act in the trio with Pirlo and Pogba. On the flanks, space for Lichtsteiner and Asamoah, while the starting duo Tevez-Llorente should meet again in attack.
The Apache has disposed of Lyon's muscle problem, which leads us to think of his ownership, in any case Giovinco is impatient and if Conte decides not to risk it, the choice would fall on him. Di Carlo is forced to score points, but has more than one eye on the next round, when Chievo will arrive at Picchi for a full-blown salvation match. This is why several elements could rest this evening, even taking into account the warnings. The coach should opt for a 4-4-2, with Bardi in goal, Ceccherini, Valentini, Coda and Castellini in defence, Benassi, Biagianti, Greco and Mesbah in midfield, Paulinho and Siligardi in attack.
