JUVENTUS - CESENA - Wednesday, September 24th, 2014 8:45 PM Juventus Stadium - Turin Referee: Piero Giacomelli HT 1-0: Vidal puts Juve in front Sep 24, 2014 Arturo Vidal’s penalty has given Juventus the half-time lead over Cesena in Turin. The Champions of Italy had won all four competitive games without conceding a goal going into this seemingly simple home test with newly-promoted Cesena. Martin Caceres joined Andrea Pirlo, Andrea Barzagli and Luca Marrone on the injury list, while Carlos Tevez and Paul Pogba were rested. The Sea Horses fumbled a 2-0 lead to draw 2-2 with Empoli at the weekend, but were still without Riccardo Cazzola, Andrea Tabanelli, Giuseppe De Feudis and Nico Pulzetti. Franco Brienza and Massimo Volta missed out at the last minute due to flu symptoms. Sebastian Giovinco’s free kick was charged down, but his volley from the ricochet was palmed out from under the bar by Cesena’s Juve-owned goalkeeper Nicola Leali. Angelo Ogbonna nodded another set play into Leali’s arms, but the referee awarded a penalty for Emmanuel Cascione’s handling offence, though he insisted he was trying to protect his face from Arturo Vidal’s fierce strike. The Chilean converted, even though Leali got a hand to it. Gigi Buffon was given something to do when punching a Guido Marilungo long-range strike out from under the crossbar. Fernando Llorente spun round to drill wide, while Giovinco’s curler and a Claudio Marchisio effort were off target. Juventus 1-0 Cesena (Half-Time) Scorers: Vidal pen 18 (J) Juventus: Buffon; Ogbonna, Bonucci, Chiellini; Lichtsteiner, Vidal, Marchisio, Pereyra, Evra; Giovinco, Llorente Cesena: Leali; Krajnc, Lucchini, Capelli; Perico, Giorgi, Cascione, Mazzotta, Renzetti; Defrel; Marilungo Ref: Giacomelli http://www.goal.com/en/results-standings/69/italy-serie-a/table?ICID=SP_TN_111

JUVENTUS - CESENA - Wednesday, September 24th, 2014 8:45 PM Juventus Stadium - Turin Referee: Piero Giacomelli Line-ups: Juventus-Cesena Sep 24, 2014 Juventus have high hopes of maintaining their 100 per cent record against newly-promoted Cesena. It kicks off at 20.45 CET. The Bianconeri won all four competitive matches this term, including the Champions League, without conceding a goal. Martin Caceres joins the injury list along with Andrea Pirlo, Andrea Barzagli and Luca Marrone. Carlos Tevez and Paul Pogba are rested in favour of Sebastian Giovinco and Roberto Pereyra, but Arturo Vidal does start. Cesena beat Parma in the opening round and fumbled a 2-0 lead with Empoli to draw 2-2 at the weekend. Riccardo Cazzola, Andrea Tabanelli, Giuseppe De Feudis and Nico Pulzetti are still out of action. There’s bad news for the Cavallucci Marini, as Franco Brienza and Massimo Volta are ruled out at the last minute by flu symptoms. Cesena have a victory in Turin on their records, although it was awarded by the Disciplinary Commission in 1987-88 because a firework was thrown from the stands and exploded in front of the tunnel at the end of the first half. Coach Max Allegri warned Juve that “the Scudetto is won against the smaller clubs,” so this is the perfect test after a 1-0 victory away to Milan. Juventus: Buffon; Ogbonna, Bonucci, Chiellini; Lichtsteiner, Vidal, Marchisio, Pereyra, Evra; Giovinco, Llorente Cesena: Leali; Krajnc, Lucchini, Capelli; Perico, Giorgi, Cascione, Mazzotta, Renzetti; Defrel; Marilungo http://www.goal.com/en/results-standings/69/italy-serie-a/table?ICID=SP_TN_111

JUVENTUS - CESENA - Wednesday, September 24th, 2014 8:45 PM Juventus Stadium - Turin Referee: Piero Giacomelli Allegri: Juventus Must Defeat The Small Teams To Win The Scudetto Sep 24, 2014 Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri has stated that the Bianconeri must to beat small team’s like Cesena if they are going to win the title. The Bianconeri host the Cavallucci Marini at the Juventus Stadium on Wednesday night but he is aware that Pierpaolo Bisoli’s side will not be an easy team to beat. “They are in a good run of form. They concede little [and] in three matches they have given away only nine corners so they defend well,” Allegri said at his pre-match press conference as reported by TuttoMercatoWeb. “To win championships you need to win above all with the small sides so you can face your direct opponents in a privileged position.” Allegri has used the same formation as well as the key personnel that former Juventus coach Antonio Conte used but he believes that it is not necessary to make changes yet. “I will not change the whole formation. We are at the start and there is no need to change for anyone trying to catch their breath,” Allegri concluded. http://www.goal.com/en/results-standings/69/italy-serie-a/table?ICID=SP_TN_111

JUVENTUS - CESENA - Wednesday, September 24th, 2014 8:45 PM Juventus Stadium - Turin Referee: Piero Giacomelli Cesena Goalkeeper Looking To Replace Buffon One Day Sep 24, 2014 Cesena goalkeeper Nicola Leali admits that he is aiming to replace Gianluigi Buffon’s between the sticks at Juventus, but not in the near future. The 21-year-old, who is seen as one of Europe’s most promising shot stoppers, joined the Bianconeri from Brescia in the summer of 2012, but was immediately sent out on loan to Lanciano for the 2012-13 campaign. Despite never featuring for the Turin club, Leali is confident that he has what it takes to succeed at Juventus in the long term as he told Tuttosport. “I would happily sign on to become Buffon’s heir in three years’ time. “He is an idol for me. I still look back at my time with him and Storari in the dressing room at the start of the season with pride. “I was impressed by everything he did. It would already be a dream for me to return to Juventus to be Buffon’s back-up.” http://www.goal.com/en/results-standings/69/italy-serie-a/table?ICID=SP_TN_111

Pirlo back for Atalanta & Atletico Madrid Sep 24, 2014 There is expectation that Juventus will be able to welcome Andrea Pirlo back to their matchday squad by the weekend. The 35-year-old, who today has been linked with a January move to the MLS, has been out of action since picking up a hip injury in pre-season. However, the midfielder underwent a latest round of physical assessments on Tuesday and is reported by a number of outlets as having responded positively, feeling no discomfort in striking a ball. Subsequently, it is seen that Juve are intending to have the player start from the bench for the weekend trip to Atalanta, with a view to almost certainly being included in the squad to face Atletico Madrid in the Champions League the following midweek.

MLS eye January Pirlo bid Sep 24, 2014 Juventus and Italy midfielder Andrea Pirlo is being linked with a move to Major League Soccer this January. Both the Italian and American media are reporting that MLS' LA Galaxy are interested in the 35-year-old playmaker, who is currently sidelined in Turin with a hip injury. According to ESPN, Pirlo could be set to replace the retiring Landon Donovan in the Galaxy squad, as the team's ‘designated player’, a rule that would allow them to ignore the League's salary cap and offer him something similar to his current €3.5m deal. However, a stumbling block facing the move is the player's own wish to respect the rest of his contract signed with the Bianconeri. Speaking in August, Pirlo mooted a move to the US, but said he'd only do so once his current deal with the Bianconeri expired.

JUVENTUS - CESENA - Wednesday, September 24th, 2014 8:45 PM Juventus Stadium - Turin Referee: Piero Giacomelli Vidal to start against Cesena Sep 24, 2014 Arturo Vidal is expected to start for Juventus tonight, as well as Romulo, whilst Alvaro Morata will continue from the bench. Vidal had been out of action with a thigh injury since the international break, but made a brief return from the bench against Milan at the weekend. The giornalaccio rosa dello Sport report that with Atletico Madrid in the Champions League next midweek, the intention is to have the Chile international fit for that encounter. So, the paper indicates that Vidal is favourite to come in for this evening’s Week 4 clash at home to Cesena. Roberto Pereyra is believed likely to drop out, whilst Stephan Lichtsteiner is expected to be rested, with Romulo handed an opportunity from kick-off, and Patrice Evra starting on the opposite flank. Morata’s search for full fitness will apparently only continue from the bench, though, with Fernando Llorente and Carlos Tevez seen as likely to start once more in attack. Max Allegri did confirm that Andrea Barzagli’s return from injury is scheduled for October 1, the date of the match with Atletico. Probable Juventus XI to face Cesena: Buffon; Ogbonna, Bonucci, Chiellini; Romulo, Vidal, Marchisio, Pogba, Evra; Llorente, Tevez http://www.goal.com/en/results-standings/69/italy-serie-a/table?ICID=SP_TN_111

JUVENTUS - CESENA - Wednesday, September 24th, 2014 8:45 PM Juventus Stadium - Turin Referee: Piero Giacomelli MATCH PREVIEW Sep 23, 2014 Juventus meet Serie A new-boys Cesena in Turin this midweek hoping to extend their 100 per cent record so far this season. A 1-0 victory over Milan on Saturday night was evidence that, despite the summer exit of Antonio Conte and arrival of Max Allegri in the dugout, Juventus remain the team to beat in Serie A. Not only have three wins been recorded, but the Bianconeri backline has yet to be breached, and Juventus have looked extremely strong without ever hitting their top form in the campaign’s opening weeks. Allegri insisted the victory at San Siro against his old employers was not a matter of revenge, and praised his side’s ‘handling’ of the game, “We created chances, including on the break, although we could have exploited them better on some occasions. But in terms of handling the ball after scoring, the guys were good, in playing and dealing with the pressing of Milan.” Another victory is highly likely on Wednesday. Kwadwo Asamoah and Stephan Lichtsteiner will be encouraged to stay wide when going forward, and central midfielders Paul Pogba and Arturo Vidal will likely make lateral runs to take advantage of the lack of width in Cesena’s setup. Carlos Tevez, looking to get on the scoresheet for the fourth consecutive game in all competitions, will be a constant nuisance for the Cesena backline with his movement and work ethic. Cesena’s return to the top-flight has been mixed, a win over Parma and defeat to Lazio followed up with a 2-2 draw with Empoli on Sunday, a game which saw the Seahorses race into a 2-0 lead before a second-half comeback rescued a point for Empoli. Cesena will have to be at their very best defensively – their strong point during last year’s promotion campaign – to collect anything from the Juventus Stadium. Luigi Giorgi, Emmanuel Cascione and Manuel Coppola will provide a shield in front of the back four, the latter man also adept at carrying the ball forward on the counter, while Guido Marilungo’s lightening pace will also be important in attacking transitions. Cesena’s start to the season has been promising, but it is difficult to see anything other than a comfortable Juventus victory on Wednesday night. Keep an eye on: Nicola Leali (Cesena) – The highly-rated young goalkeeper is on loan from Juventus and will be hoping to catch the eye against his parent club. Agile and athletic, Leali is one of a few promising young Italian shot-stoppers to emerge over the past couple of seasons. Form Guide: Juventus ( - -W W W) Cesena ( - -W L D) Last season: Not played Stat fact: Since moving to the Juventus Stadium in 2011, the Bianconeri have only failed to score in a league home game twice.

JUVENTUS - CESENA - Wednesday, September 24th, 2014 8:45 PM Juventus Stadium - Turin Referee: Piero Giacomelli Juventus squad for Cesena Sep 23, 2014 Juventus are still without Andrea Barzagli, Andrea Pirlo, Luca Marrone and Martin Caceres against Cesena. It kicks off on Wednesday at 20.45 CET. Caceres is awaiting further tests on a thigh injury, but could be out for several weeks after he limped off during the 1-0 victory over Milan. Pirlo, Barzagli and Luca Marrone are still dealing with pre-season injuries. Juventus squad for Cesena: Buffon, Romulo, Chiellini, Ogbonna, Pogba, Pepe, Marchisio, Morata, Tevez, Coman, Giovinco, Llorente, Bonucci, Padoin, Asamoah, Vidal, Lichtsteiner, Storari, Evra, Rubinho, Pereyra, Mattiello http://www.goal.com/en/results-standings/69/italy-serie-a/table?ICID=SP_TN_111

JUVENTUS - CESENA - Wednesday, September 24th, 2014 8:45 PM Juventus Stadium - Turin Referee: Piero Giacomelli Bisoli: 'Tempo can hurt Juve' Sep 23, 2014 Cesena Coach Pierpaolo Bisoli says the key to causing Juventus problems is “a high tempo and concentration.” “Games like this are actually easier to prepare, because when playing against Juventus you cannot lack concentration,” noted Bisoli in his Press conference. “We know it is a prohibitively difficult task for us, as Juve are unbeaten at home in two and a half years and kept a clean sheet for all four fixtures this season. “We will try to make life difficult for them by keeping a high tempo and packing the midfield, therefore preventing their many champions from having the space to pick passes.” Cesena were promoted into Serie A in June via the play-offs and lost only one of their opening three games. “We are working to improve, but need a great deal of patience to reach our peak. I’d say four points after facing Parma, Lazio and Empoli is a decent tally.” http://www.goal.com/en/results-standings/69/italy-serie-a/table?ICID=SP_TN_111
