There's a lot of anticipation for the Derby della Mole. Toro wants to dispel the tabù that sees it unable to win on the Juventus field for 28 years. This could be the right opportunity for Juric’s team, given the many injury problems that are affecting Allegri’s choices.

In particular, è the attack the real problem for the Bianconeri coach. Vlahovic, due to pubalgia, è officially out. Even Chiesa, struggling with muscle pains, seems destined to skip the Turin classic. In fact, Juventus risks renouncing its two pivotal men, authors of eight of Juventus’ 12 goals this season.

Allegri has available Milik, just recovered after missing the challenge with Atalanta, and Kean, also not at the top. Bold choices cannot be ruled out either, such as that of Miretti in an advanced position or, again, the insertion of the young Turkish Yildiz as a second forward in support of one of Milik and Kean. Either way, it will be a decidedly re-staffed attack. A big problem for Allegri.
