LIVORNO - JUVENTUS November 24, 2013 - 3:00 PM Armando Picchi Stadium — Livorno Referee: Davide Massa Line-ups: Livorno-Juventus Nov 24, 2013 Juventus can temporarily go top of the table with a win away to Livorno, but are forced to play Arturo Vidal at centre-back. http://markting10.nl/ It kicks off at the Stadio Armando Picchi at 15.00 CET. As Roma don’t play Cagliari until Monday evening, the Bianconeri are just one point off the leaders and could spend at least 24 hours in the top spot. However, Antonio Conte has to deal with a large number of absentees, most of them centred around the defence. http://markting10.nl/ Leonardo Bonucci and Angelo Ogbonna are both suspended, while Andrea Barzagli, Mauricio Isla, Stephan Lichtsteiner, Sebastian Giovinco and Simone Pepe are injured. This forces a radical reshuffle of the back line with Vidal re-routed to centre-back with Martin Caceres and Livorno-born Giorgio Chiellini. It’s not the first time the Chilean midfielder has been used in defence, as he already played there in 2012 against Genoa and Fiorentina. http://markting10.nl/ In attack, Fernando Llorente is again used as the partner for Carlos Tevez. This is a very special game for Gianluigi Buffon, his 500th Serie A appearance. Livorno are hovering just above the relegation zone and haven’t beaten Juventus in Tuscany since a 1-0 result in 1940-41. The Amaranto are also missing star players, as top scorer Paulinho sits out a ban. Innocent Emeghara therefore partners Luca Siligardi, as the two have so far been taking turns at starting alongside Paulinho. http://markting10.nl/ LIVORNO: Bardi; Coda, Rinaudo, Ceccherini; Schiattarella, Luci, Mbaye, Emerson, Greco; Siligardi, Emeghara Livorno bench: Aldegani, Anania, Lambrughi, Piccini, Gemiti, Biagianti, Valentini, Belinghieri, Decarli, Mosquera, Benassi, Borja JUVENTUS: Buffon; Caceres, Vidal, Chiellini; Padoin, Pogba, Pirlo, Marchisio, Asamoah; Tevez, Llorente Juventus bench: Storari, Rubinho, De Ceglie, Peluso, Motta, Quagliarella, Vucinic http://www.goal.com/en/results-standings/69/italy-serie-a/table?ICID=SP_TN_111

LIVORNO - JUVENTUS November 24, 2013 - 3:00 PM Armando Picchi Stadium — Livorno Referee: Davide Massa Juventus News – Vidal in Defense? Nov 24, 2013 Welcome back to our complete coverage of CRISIS IN DEFENSE 2013! http://markting10.nl/ That’s right, amici: Juventus came back from an eventful international break to find themselves a few defenders short of a full deck. Some absences (Leo Bonucci, Angelo Ogbonna) were already confirmed after Napoli, but Andrea Barzagli’s uncertain status has turned an already uncomfortable situation into a potential emergency. Now, Antonio Conte will field an improvised back line for Sunday’s match at Livorno, and we tifosi will suffer accordingly. The good news is that all of our international heroes return to Turin with the confidence in knowing that, barring injury or the whims of Cesare Prandelli, they will be playing in a World Cup next summer. The past fortnight’s last-ditch World Cup qualifiers have made sure that our Bianconeri will be heavily represented in Brazil. http://markting10.nl/ Paul Pogba, Kwadwo Asamoah and Martin Caceres all helped their respective nations qualify in the eleventh hour. Add them to those whose countries already qualified (Stephan Lichtsteiner, Arturo Vidal and Mauricio Isla, Fernando Llorente and the prospective five-to-eight Italian Bianconeri sure to be called up), and Andrea Agnelli should start working on the commercial tie-ins and brand-expansion opportunities sooner rather than later. We’ll leave him to his work. We’ve got some worrying to do… http://markting10.nl/ Livorno Updates: Vidal in Defense? Brace yourselves, Juventini: We may be watching most of Sunday’s match through our fingers. The crisis in defense is such that Antonio Conte was considering switching to a 4-3-3, though at the moment he seems to be favoring the old 3-5-2, according to Sky Sport. Either way, Conte will be forced to put together a pretty radical, relatively ragtag unit in front of Gigi Buffon. To recap: Leo Bonucci reached his yellow-card limit against Napoli, as we knew he would. Angelo Ogbonna was sent off in that match, so he too is disqualified. Meanwhile, Andrea Barzagli picked up a thigh strain in the Italy-Germany friendly on Friday and will most likely sit this one out; it would be foolish to risk him anyway with the crucial Champions League match with Copenhagen next week. Stephan Lichtsteiner remains unavailable and sorely missed. http://markting10.nl/ In light of all this, Conte is apparently thinking of playing Arturo Vidal as the middle center-back between Martin Caceres and Giorgio Chiellini. He tested the arrangement out in practice, and there is no evidence to suggest that it was a wash. Earlier this week, there were reports that Arturo Vidal would be forced to skip Livorno following his departure from Chile’s camp this week, thanks to FIFA’s “five-day-rule” which claims, according to Football Italia, that “a player cannot play a competitive game for his club if he’s been sent home from an international call-up.” However, FI report that FIFA have in fact cleared Arturo to play on Sunday. Despite still technically recovering from the injury sustained against Napoli, Vidal will be out there. Either Conte simply wants the best players available on the pitch, or he really doesn’t trust Federico Peluso as a center-back (nor should he). On the wings, Mauricio Isla will be unavailable for the next two matches, as he sustained knee-ligament damage in Chile’s friendly with England. That means that Conte will probably start Padoin on the right wing (or in the worst-case scenario — dun-dun-DUN! — Marco Motta). Kwadwo Asamoah will start on the left wing, despite playing two intense sudden-death World Cup qualifiers with Ghana. http://markting10.nl/ In central midfield, Paul Pogba, Andrea Pirlo and Claudio Marchisio will all start; who else possibly can, unless Vidal moves up from defense? If there ever was a match where the midfield was all-important, it will be this one; it should provide one of the few areas of stability for Juve on Sunday. As for the attack: Carlos Tevez is a lock, as always. Plus, the most strenuous activity he engaged in outside of training was meeting the Pope, so he should be well-rested. The latest from Vinovo is that Fabio Quagliarella will partner with him. Fernando Llorente is available on the bench, but Sebastian Giovinco is out, as the injury to his left foot has apparently flared up again. Meanwhile, Mirko Vucinic should be available off the bench, in what will either be his long-awaited return or an open audition for the January transfer window (it’s seems more and more likely to be the latter). http://markting10.nl/ Conte is being careful on dual fronts: He needs to choose the best, most defensively airtight squad from the players available, but he also needs to monitor some players’ minutes in view of Copenhagen, which is the much more important match. No matter what, Juve simply cannot drop points to Livorno, especially not in this tight-race season. The chemistry and choreography in defense might be missing at times on Sunday, but it’s not like Conte is hiring temps here; if Conte trusts his players implicitly, then so should we. It’s not going to be pretty, but an undermanned Juve should still handle their business. FORZA RAGAZZI!!! http://markting10.nl/ Massa to Ref Livorno Clash Davide Massa of Liguria will preside over Juve’s trip to Livorno on Sunday afternoon. According to the Mothership, Massa has a very small track record with the Italian champions: one match, to be exact. But it was a good one: Under Davide’s whistle, the Bianconeri dispatched Atalanta 3-0 thanks to Mirko Vucinic, Claudio Marchisio and Andrea Pirlo. http://markting10.nl/ Let’s hope he calls a loose game for our makeshift defense’s sake. If the usual chemistry is missing or Conte’s tactical training doesn’t take for some reason, we may see some less-than-divine interventions on Sunday—especially with Captain Hook in the middle. Massa’s linesmen will be Marco Barbirati and Simone Ghiandai. Fabio Galloni will be fourth official and might have to play defense for Juve in an emergency. http://www.goal.com/en/results-standings/69/italy-serie-a/table?ICID=SP_TN_111

LIVORNO - JUVENTUS November 24, 2013 - 3:00 PM Armando Picchi Stadium — Livorno Referee: Davide Massa Nicola: 'Livorno can trouble Juve' Nov 24, 2013 Juventus visit Livorno today and Coach Davide Nicola points out “we know we can do well against stronger teams.” http://markting10.nl/ It kicks off at 15.00 CET. “We are playing against a side that has the most quality in Serie A, so it will be an opportunity for us to test our progress,” said the tactician in his Press conference. “We know that we can do well against teams that are stronger than us on paper, even though we still have to find our balance. http://markting10.nl/ “Juve have a precise identity and an excellent Coach, but we will try to limit them by playing as a team unit.” Livorno were shaken this week when captain Andrea Luci announced his six-year-old son is suffering from a rare genetic disease. “Andrea revealed this situation with a noble gesture aimed at raising funds and awareness for research into the disease. He is a public figure and made the first step, now it is up to the media to treat the news in the right way. http://markting10.nl/ “We stand by Andrea. His problems are our problems.” The Livorno fans will hold a fund-raising drive during today’s game. Livorno squad for Juventus: Anania, Bardi, Lambrughi, Gemiti, Emerson, Piccini, Ceccherini, Mbaye, Rinaudo, Coda, Decarli, Valentini, Luci, Mosquera, Duncan, Greco, Belingheri, Benassi, Biagianti, Schiattarella, Borja, Siligardi, Emeghara http://www.goal.com/en/results-standings/69/italy-serie-a/table?ICID=SP_TN_111

LIVORNO - JUVENTUS November 24, 2013 - 3:00 PM Armando Picchi Stadium — Livorno Referee: Davide Massa Livorno v Juventus: Preview Nov 23, 2013 Juventus are flying high in Serie A but defender Giorgio Chiellini knows he and his team-mates must remain fully focused if they want to lift a third successive scudetto. http://markting10.nl/ The champions visit Livorno on Sunday looking to extend their four-match winning streak. Juve's 3-0 triumph against Napoli in Turin last time out saw Antonio Conte's side climb into second place and reduce the gap with league leaders Roma to just one point. The win was Juve's 10th in 12 league games and kept the Turin giants perfect at home. http://markting10.nl/ "We are on the right path," Chiellini said. "But we know that it takes very little for things to change and that is why we must continue to work hard, focus on ourselves and not on others." "We now have three games against teams - Livorno, Udinese and Bologna - that are in need of points and that will no doubt give 110 per cent against us." "All will depend on the approach we have." http://markting10.nl/ Livorno have won just one of their last nine league games and their 2-0 defeat at Inter Milan in the last round dropped them to 15th place, three points clear of the relegation zone. The Amaranto will be hoping Juve will be distracted by their Champions League match against FC Copenhagen on Wednesday. The Bianconeri need to beat the Danes in Turin if they are to have any chance of progressing to the knockout round of the competition. http://markting10.nl/ "We know we face a huge task against the defending champions," Livorno coach Davide Nicola said. "We have to show courage and determination to try and stop Juve from taking three points." "We showed positive signs against Inter but we still have a lot of room for improvement." Fortunately for Livorno, Juve will be nowhere near full strength with regular defenders Stephan Lichtsteiner and Andrea Barzagli out injured and Leonardo Bonucci and Angelo Ogbonna suspended. http://markting10.nl/ The hosts will be bolstered by the return of defenders Andrea Coda and Leandro Rinaudo as well as midfielder Leandro Greco from suspension. However, Livorno's top scorer Paulinho must serve a one-match ban. http://www.goal.com/en/results-standings/69/italy-serie-a/table?ICID=SP_TN_111
