Coach Juventus Massimiliano Allegri spoke about preparing for a fight against Torino.

At the pre-match press conference on the eve of the central match of the sixth round of the championship of Italy Juventus - Torino, the coach of the "old lady" Massimiliano Allegri shared his expectations from the Turin derby and talked about the preparation of the team.

"Derby is always a special match for us," Allegri said.. - And not only for the team, but also for the fans, for the city. But all the same the most important now is to take three points and extend the five-match winning streak. We are waiting for three very difficult matches - against Torino, Olympiakos in the Champions League, and then against Atalanta. But we will not run ahead of time. Torino is now in great shape, the place in the top six in Serie A speaks for itself ".

"In the derby will definitely not play Andrea Bartsali, to whom we decided to give a rest before the Champions League. But this does not mean that we have no one to replace him. Daniele Rugani progresses from match to match, and will soon become a real master. Also well is the adaptation process of Blaise Mathewidi, who also will be released in the starting lineup ".

"Douglas Costa and Juan Cuadrado are in great shape, but whether they will be in the starting lineup on the derby, I will decide directly on the day of the match.

The same goes for Federico Bernardeschi, who is almost ready for his first hit in the main lineup ".

"Benedikt Hevedes will not play exactly - tomorrow or the day after tomorrow he will undergo additional medical tests. The state of Claudio Marchisio we will evaluate next week, and Sami Khedira has already started training and will be ready for the Champions League match. Close to the complete restoration of Marco Piazzus, and Mattia De Chillo will return no earlier than four weeks ".
