JUVENTUS  Buffon Lichtsteiner, Barzagli, Chiellini, De Ceglie Giaccherini, Pirlo, Marchisio Quagliarella, Matri, Vucinic | CHIEVO  Sorrentino Sardo, Andreolli, Acerbi, Drame Bradley, Rigoni, Hetemaj Thereau, Cruzado Palsochi |
Coming off earning a crucial point against title rivals AC Milan courtesy of Alessandro Matri’s late strike at San Siro, Antonio Conte’s side will hope to put even more pressure on the leaders this Sunday as they still have a game in hand despite being one point behind.
However, with midfielder Arturo Vidal suspended after picking up a late red card versus Milan and Pepe also banned, Juve are likely to drop their 3-5-2 experiment and utilise a 4-3-3 with the previously mentioned goalscorer Matri back in the starting XI at the expense of Marco Borriello.
Former Cesena star Emaneule Giaccherini will return to the midfield alongside Italy internationals Andrea Pirlo and Claudio Marchisio while Martin Caceres and Stephan Lichtsteiner will battle it out for a spot at right-back.
After a couple wins on the trot, Chievo sit in midtable and are nine points above the relegation zone, but veteran striker Sergio Pellissier is suspended so Italy Under-21 international Alberto Paloschi will likely have to toil on his own in attack.
Furthermore, coach Domenico Di Carlo will also be without Nikola Gulan. A serious muscle injury to the young Serbian midfielder is expected to keep the player on loan from Fiorentina out for the next few weeks.
