Competition: Italian Serie A

Venue: Allianz Stadium, Torino
Kick-off Time: 19:45 GMT
Juventus won the last three home matches with Fiorentina in the Serie A, and it is expected that it will get 3 new points from their match. Juventus triumphed in the first four rounds of the Serie A but was defeat at the very start of the new season by Lazio 3-2 in the Italian Super
Cup. Juventus also lost away last week in the first round of the UEFA Champions League to
Barcelona 3-0.
However, the team routinely did the job in next
league game away with Sassuolo and due to goals scored by Dybala won
by sound 3-1. Before that Juventus won Genoa away by 4-2, while they
defeated at home by 3-0 Cagliari and Chievo, which altogether indicates
that will play offensively against Fiorentina from the first minute with
an objective to win three new points. Because of injuries
still out of action are: defenders de Sciglio and Howedes, midfielders
Khedir and Marchisio, and forward Pjaca.
On the other side, Fiorentina was defeated in the first two rounds, by Inter Milan away
and Sampdoria at home, but in the next two matches, they won maximal six
points, after winning away Verona by even 5-0 and Bologna at home 2-1. For sure, the atmosphere in the locker room is much better after the two
last games.
Fiorentina underwent numerous changes this summer, including
new coach, Pioli.
Surely, that is one of the reasons why
Fiorentina did play a bit weaker at the start of the new season but some
things have obviously found their place later on. The team will
probably play against Juventus in a similar way like in the two previous
rounds and without much pressure. Regarding the team, not too many
changes are expected compared to the two previous matches, especially as out
of action is only from before: injured midfielder, Saponara.
Probable lineups:
Juventus: Buffon – Lichtsteiner, Barzagli, Benatia, Asamoah – Pjanic, Matuidi – Bernardeschi, Dybala, Douglas Costa – Higu
Fiorentina: Sportiello – Gaspar, Pezzella, Astori, Biraghi – Badelj, Veretout – Chiesa, Benassi, Dias – Simeone
