FROSINONE - JUVENTUS - MATCHDAY 24 Sunday, February 7nd, 2016 - 3:00 PM Matusa Stadium, Frosinone Referee: Davide Massa Line-ups: Frosinone-Juventus http://www.football-italia.net/79533/line-ups-frosinone-juventus Feb 7, 2016 Juventus aim for a 14th consecutive Serie A victory, but have injury problems as they visit a Frosinone side back in business. It kicks off at 15.00 CET - 14.00 GMT. The Bianconeri are still only two points off leaders Napoli and need to keep up the pace ahead of Saturday’s Scudetto showdown. Max Allegri has some issues to deal with, as Simone Zaza sits out a ban with Mario Mandzukic, Sami Khedira, Patrice Evra, Kwadwo Asamoah and Martin Caceres injured. It means Paulo Dybala and Alvaro Morata are the only real choices for the front two, while Giorgio Chiellini and Leo Bonucci start despite reports at least one would be rested. Juan Guillermo Cuadrado comes in for Stephan Lichtsteiner on the right. Frosinone are missing Arlen Ajeti and Oliver Kragl, but Daniel Pavlovic is back in the squad. On Wednesday they ended their run of two points from eight rounds by beating Bologna 1-0 and that boosted their confidence no end. Federico Dionisi is their top scorer with seven goals, but crucially six of them were netted on home turf. This isn’t actually Juve’s first trip to the Matusa, as they played here in Serie B, winning 2-0 in May 2007 post-Calciopoli. Frosinone are tricky customers, as they earned a last-gasp 1-1 draw in Turin earlier this season. Frosinone: Leali; Rosi, Russo, Blanchard, Crivello; Gori, Chibsah, Sammarco; Tonev, D Ciofani, Dionisi Juventus: Buffon; Barzagli, Bonucci, Chiellini; Cuadrado, Sturaro, Marchisio, Pogba, Alex Sandro; Morata, Dybala http://www.goal.com/en-gb/tables/serie-a/13?ICID=SP_TN_127

Marotta: 'Juve can keep Allegri' http://www.football-italia.net/79539/marotta-juve-can-keep-allegri Feb 7, 2016 Juventus director Beppe Marotta shrugged off Chelsea interest. “The conditions are there to continue with Max Allegri.” The Bianconeri are two points off the top of the table and face leaders Napoli next Saturday. “We have a great rapport with Allegri, now the crucial moment of the season is coming up, so we should focus on that,” Marotta told Mediaset Premium. “In any case, contracts are not as important as the rapport between people. With Allegri the conditions are all there to continue. “The team is doing well and improving a great deal. Today it’ll be a festival of sport against Frosinone, but we still want to win. “Who would be most suited to Chelsea between Antonio Conte and Allegri? They are both top Coaches.”

FROSINONE - JUVENTUS - MATCHDAY 24 Sunday, February 7nd, 2016 - 3:00 PM Matusa Stadium, Frosinone Referee: Davide Massa Frosinone v Juventus Preview: Cuadrado not thinking of Napoli test Title-chasing Juve travel to Stadio Matusa this weekend before their potentially decisive meeting with Serie A leaders Napoli in midweek. http://www.goal.com/en/match/frosinone-vs-juventus/2120611/preview Feb 7, 2016 Juan Cuadrado says next week's top-of-the-table clash against Napoli will mean much less if Juventus fail to beat struggling Frosinone at the Stadio Comunale Matusa on Sunday. Second-placed Juve trail Maurizio Sarri's Serie A leaders by two points going into the weekend's action after Cuadrado helped the champions to a 1-0 success at home to Genoa, setting a new club record for consecutive league wins in a single season of 13. Victories for Juve and Napoli - who face Carpi on Sunday - would set their meeting at the Juventus Stadium up nicely in the context of the title race. But Massimiliano Allegri's men were held at home 1-1 by Frosinone in September as the visitors claimed their first Serie A point in Turin. And with Sami Khedira (thigh) and Mario Mandzukic (hip) doubtful, Cuadrado says all focus needs to be on the trip south this weekend. "Undoubtedly our meeting with Napoli will be huge and possibly decisive for the title race, but it will lose most of its value if we don't beat Frosinone," the Colombian said in an interview with Sky and Mediaset. "These are exactly the kind of games that can trip you up. For that reason, we'll need to approach it with the same desire and will to win that we have shown in the last two months or so. "Both we and Napoli are in excellent form, but the fact is that they are still ahead of us. It's up to us to catch them and we will only do that by remaining calm and by concentrating on our own results. We only have eyes for Frosinone at the moment." Juve's visit offers another stern test for Roberto Stellone's men, who sit in 19th place, five points off safety. Federico Dionisi's late penalty ensured the points against 10-man Bologna in midweek and former Torino and Napoli striker Stellone is eager to make a dent in Juve's title hopes. "I am a former Torino and Napoli player and I would love to do a favour to my former team in the title race and of course bring joy to the supporters of Frosinone," he told Sky Sport Italia. "It certainly will not be easy, because Juventus are the form team of the championship. "They have not won their last 13 games in Serie A by chance but we have great confidence, the most recent win has restored confidence and enthusiasm here." OPTA FACTS The only previous meeting between these two sides was the 1-1 of the reverse fixture – that was the first point taken by Frosinone in their Serie A history. Juventus are on a run of 13 consecutive wins in this competition – a record for the Old Lady in a single Serie A campaign. The Bianconeri have won their last seven away games, scoring at least two goals per game (21 in total). Juve have conceded only one goal since the start of 2016 – at least three fewer than any other side. Frosinone got back to winning ways last Wednesday against Bologna, ending a negative run of eight games without success. Frosinone haven’t conceded in their last two games at the Matusa – they’ve never kept three clean sheets in a row at home in Serie A. Juventus have the best defence in this competition (15 goals conceded), Frosinone have the worst (48). Frosinone have recorded the worst passing accuracy in this Serie A (only 70%).

Juve post-Allegri options http://www.football-italia.net/79526/juve-post-allegri-options? Feb 7, 2016 Chelsea continue to be linked to Max Allegri, so Juventus alternatives include Paulo Sousa, Eusebio Di Francesco and Jurgen Klopp. Despite his insistence that he is happy at Juve and has a contract to 2017, papers in Italy and England are still leading with the story Allegri is considering an offer from Chelsea. He has apparently surpassed current Italy boss Antonio Conte in the pecking order and would receive wages worth €6m per year, rising to €7m. Now La giornalaccio rosa dello Sport is considering the potential replacements should Allegri leave for Stamford Bridge. These include the improbable swoop for new Liverpool manager Klopp. More likely are Sousa, who is increasingly frustrated with Fiorentina’s lack of transfer activity, and current Sassuolo Coach Di Francesco.

Lo avrebbero dovuto far giocare contro il Frosinone, non giochiamo contro il Bayern oggi ...

FROSINONE - JUVENTUS - MATCHDAY 24 Sunday, February 7nd, 2016 - 3:00 PM Matusa Stadium, Frosinone Referee: Davide Massa Stellone: 'Juve superior to Napoli' http://www.football-italia.net/79491/allegri-focus-frosinone Feb 7, 2016 Frosinone host Juventus today and Coach Roberto Stellone feels they are “superior” to current Serie A leaders Napoli. It kicks off at 15.00 CET - 14.00 GMT. “It’s a wonderful game to play and in all honesty I’d love to be on the pitch myself,” said Stellone in a Press conference. “Juventus are a very strong side, but we know that it can be done. At home we’ve only really struggled once, against a Napoli side that was at the top of its game. “To challenge Juve we need to work hard and never let our heads drop. We must also be ruthless in the chances we do create. “We’ll use the 4-3-3 system that has been working so well for us lately. It’s all well and good saying we have to close down the spaces, but Juve have the quality to find more spaces anyway. We just have to make their possession sterile.” Juventus and Napoli go head-to-head for the Scudetto next Saturday, so this is their last chance to stay within two points of the leaders. “In my view at this moment Juve are superior to Napoli and are one of the best sides in the world. We have to repeat the attitude we had against Roma and remember we are capable of anything. We stayed in the game in Turin and at the end snatched an equaliser.” Frosinone are without Oliver Kragl and Arlen Ajeti, but Daniel Pavlovic is available. Frosinone squad for Juventus: Bardi, Leali, Zappino; Blanchard, M Ciofani, Crivello, Pavlovic, Pryyma, Rosi, Russo; Chibsah, Frara, Gori, Gucher, Sammarco; Carlini, D Ciofani, Dionisi, Longo, Paganini, Soddimo, Tonev http://www.goal.com/en-gb/tables/serie-a/13?ICID=SP_TN_127

Bayern Munich Defense Impresses, Attack Flops with Juventus Clash on the Horizon http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2614466-bayern-munich-defense-impresses-attack-flops-with-juventus-clash-on-the-horizon? Feb 7, 2016 On a typical day, Bayern Munich can steamroll their opponents in the Bundesliga. Man for man, they're miles ahead of any team the likes of Augsburg, Hoffenheim, Darmstadt and Hannover can field. So it is in the few games when the talent gap is somewhat narrower that Bayern's true form can be assessed. On Saturday, Bayern played against a Bayer Leverkusen team that were vastly inferior to their opponents yet still a very strong team: Overall, Roger Schmidt's side had talent to offer in every part of the pitch, and the former Red Bull Salzburg manager had enough tactical nous to bring the best out of his team. This was a Werkself side that had pushed Bayern to penalties in the DFB-Pokal a year before and done the same with Atletico Madrid in the UEFA Champions League round of 16 in 2015. If there was ever going to be a form check for Bayern ahead of their Champions League run-in with Juventus on February 23, it was playing Leverkusen at the BayArena. On balance, Bayern and Leverkusen both deserved their 0-0 draw: No more, no less. It was an evenly played game. The Bavarians were held to a modest nine shots; it was more than their hosts managed but a season low that was forced by Schmidt's high-pressing system. DW Sports ✔ @dw_sports PEP speaking to Sky - "We struggled in the 1st half to put three or four passes together. If you can't do that, it's impossible to play... On the one hand, Bayern's attacking performance was rather disappointing. There were too few chances created, and the tactics just weren't right from the outset. Pep Guardiola started Douglas Costa in the central position behind Robert Lewandowski, which didn't work very well. After the game, the trainer justified his decision (per Deutsche Welle): "We knew that [Christoph] Kramer and [Kevin] Kampl would push forward. So that's why we played Costa in the middle." Guardiola had the right idea in that both of Leverkusen's holding midfielders were not strictly anchors and were the type to get forward. His mistake was using Costa in a role that diminished the value of his pace and exposed the Brazilian for his limited abilities as a number 10. Costa creates chances not so much due to his brilliant passing skill and creativity (think Mesut Ozil), but due to his clever dribbling and blistering pace. After an hour, Thomas Muller was brought on to play as a supporting striker, and Costa was moved out wide. The result was two good chances for the substitute within minutes of his introduction to the game, and Roberto Hilbert had a nightmare trying to contain Costa for the rest of the encounter. Bayern could well have won Saturday's match, and it wouldn't have been entirely different from many other instances this season in which they struggled initially but eventually got their goal and went on to win. But it didn't happen, which is cause for concern for a club that are so thin on defensive options at the moment. Jonathan Harding @JonBloggs66 Müller's movement alone is why he should always start. Nine times out of ten he scores both of those and the contest is over. On the other hand, Bayern's defense was surprisingly firm given that the center-back pairing included 20-year-old midfielder Joshua Kimmich, starting in just his second match as a defender. Leverkusen had few chances, which is impressive on Bayern's part—especially given the form Javier Hernandez was enjoying entering the game. Actually, the hosts only took six shots all game, and it's not as though they didn't ever get a touch on the ball. Kimmich and Holger Badstuber were impressive in the center, while Philipp Lahm and David Alaba were superb on the wings. The only caveat was Kimmich's height and positioning let him down with an early headed chance for Omer Toprak that could have left the Bavarians against the ropes. The way the Leverkusen match panned out for Bayern has somewhat surprising implications on what to expect against Juventus. Given the Bundesliga leaders' options in attack and defense, it would be expected that an attempt to outgun their opponents is probably their best bet. If they try that, the Leverkusen result will be greatly disconcerting: They lacked incisiveness to create many chances and the sharpness to finish those they did manage to carve out. Juventus have a better defense than Leverkusen's and a much more tactically disciplined model. It's hard to imagine the Italians being caught out and having to defend one-on-one the way Leverkusen did. Archie Rhind-Tutt @archiert1 Would be surprised if Juventus don't beat Bayern in the Champions League given the way Bayern are playing. At the same time, the Leverkusen clash proved that things might not be all that bad for Bayern at the back. A few days ago, the prospect of Kimmich and Badstuber facing off against Paulo Dybala and Alvaro Morata was troubling at the least, if not downright terrifying. Yet now, after another clean sheet, it may not be so disconcerting. If Bayern can keep the ball and close down space in midfield, their defense may have enough quality to keep Juve's chances to a minimum. There are still two-and-a-half weeks until the Juventus clash, which is plenty of time for Bayern to sort out their attack and for their defense to get more practice working together. Injuries have hurt their defense, but Guardiola and company have time on their side. If they pull themselves together, they have every reason to be seen as favorites to advance.

FROSINONE - JUVENTUS - MATCHDAY 24 Sunday, February 7nd, 2016 - 3:00 PM Matusa Stadium, Frosinone Referee: Davide Massa Allegri: 'Focus on Frosinone' http://www.football-italia.net/79491/allegri-focus-frosinone Feb 6, 2016 Max Allegri warned Juventus to focus on Frosinone and not get distracted by the Scudetto showdown with Napoli. It kicks off on Sunday at 15.00 CET - 14.00 GMT. Next Saturday they face Serie A leaders Napoli, so will the likes of Leonardo Bonucci and Alex Sandro be rested to avoid picking up a ban? “No, I won’t take that into account,” insisted the Coach in his Press conference. “The only doubt is regarding Bonucci. “Tomorrow is a game where three points are just as important as in any other fixture and let’s not forget last time out Frosinone held us to a draw at home. They’ve done very well, above all on set plays.” There are also injury concerns, as Mario Mandzukic, Sami Khedira, Patrice Evra and Kwadwo Asamoah are out, while the season is already over for Martin Caceres. Simone Zaza is suspended. “We wish Martin all the best. He’s a big loss for us, both as a person and a player. Do I regret out January transfer strategy? No, because I couldn’t have known about Caceres. In any case, I have Daniele Rugani and Simone Padoin. I could even return to four at the back. “In attack I have no choice, so Paulo Dybala and Alvaro Morata will start tomorrow. Stefano Sturaro has fully recovered, Asamoah will be back in a week, as will Khedira. It’s unlikely Mandzukic will recover in time for Napoli.” Most questions were aimed towards the next test with Napoli and not Frosinone, something that irritated Allegri. “After our 4-0 win at Chievo, there was a lot of euphoria outside the locker room. The game against Genoa brought us with our feet back on the ground. “Let’s not forget last season we had a spell with many 1-0 victories. There are moments in a season when you play very well, others when you win so-called ugly. Those victories will increase your chances of winning the Scudetto.” There are yet more reports that Allegri has been offered €10m per season to take over at Chelsea next term. “My future? Everything has its time. I am happy here today, I have a contract with Juventus and I intend to remain here for the future of the side.” http://www.goal.com/en-gb/tables/serie-a/13?ICID=SP_TN_127

FROSINONE - JUVENTUS - MATCHDAY 24 Sunday, February 7nd, 2016 - 3:00 PM Matusa Stadium, Frosinone Referee: Davide Massa Napoli 'fittest' team in Serie A http://www.football-italia.net/79481/napoli-fittest-team-serie Feb 6, 2016 Juventus have had more injuries than any other club this season, but Napoli had the least with only four, calculated La giornalaccio rosa dello Sport. The Bianconeri fans will not be surprised by this statistic, as Mario Mandzukic and Sami Khedira have just been ruled out for three weeks, while the campaign is already over for Martin Caceres. Juve have dealt with 33 different injuries this season, surpassing even troubled Lazio on 32. There’s a big drop-off from there, down to 26 for Bologna, 25 Torino and 23 for bottom of the table Verona. The intriguing statistic is that Serie A leaders Napoli are bottom of the pile with only four injuries all season. It’s worth noting that one of them is Alberto Grassi, who arrived from Atalanta and suffered a knee ligament injury in his first training session. Manolo Gabbiadini also sustained his injury while on international duty, so only Dries Mertens and Vlad Chiriches were ruled out playing for Napoli. There are reasons behind this remarkable record, including DNA tests for all players – including the youth team – to prevent issues, postural studies and a specific nutritional programme. While Juventus have had the most injuries, Lazio are the worst hit with 22 different players suffering from problems compared to 17 at Juve and Milan, 16 at Roma and Verona. Serie A injuries this season Juventus 33, Lazio 32, Bologna 26, Torino 25, Verona 23, Genoa and Milan 22, Chievo 18, Roma 17, Atalanta and Udinese 16, Carpi and Sampdoria 14, Empoli and Inter 13, Frosinone 12, Fiorentina 10, Sassuolo 9, Palermo 7, Napoli 4. http://www.goal.com/en-gb/tables/serie-a/13?ICID=SP_TN_127
