Paolo De Ceglie returns at left-back after a one-match ban, as Fabio Grosso will have to watch the match from the stands. Furthermore, Emanuele Giaccherini has been benched in favour of Milos Krasic, who is part of the starting XI for the first time this season. Veteran attacker Alessandro Del Piero partners Mirko Vucinic up front after starting last weekend's game from the bench, meaning that goalscorer Alessandro Matri won't play against Bologna. Bologna tactician Pierpaolo Bisoli will be looking to Gaston Ramirez to provide his side with creativity from midfield, while Roberto Acquafresca will be the main attacking threat for the guests. Juventus: Buffon; Lichtsteiner, Barzagli, Chiellini, De Ceglie; Pirlo, Marchisio; Krasic, Del Piero, Vucinic, Pepe Subs: Storari, Bonucci, Vidal, Elia, Quagliarella, Giaccherini, Matri Bologna: Gillet; Casarini, Portanova, Antonsson, Morleo; Diamanti, Perez, Mudingayi, Kone, Ramirez; Acquafresca Subs: Agliardi, Raggi, Loria, Pulzetti, Krhin, Paponi, Di Vaio.

Serie A Week 4 - 21/9/2011 (08:45 p.m.) - Juventus Arena - Turin Antonio Conte recalls Milos Krasic for Bologna clash The Serbian winger, despite being the focus of transfer speculation, is set to return to the Juventus starting XI for Wednesday evening's Serie A fixture. Sep 21, 2011 Milos Krasic is to be recalled to the Juventus starting XI for Wednesday evening's fixture with Bologna, the giornalaccio rosa dello Sport reports. The Serbian wing-man has been linked with a move away from Turin following an inauspicious start to the 2011/12 season in which he has started both games from the bench, appearing for just 21 minutes as a substitute against Parma. He was also involved in a bizarre exchange with coach Antonio Conte during Sunday's victory at Siena. Stripped and ready to come on, he was on the receiving end of a ferocious rant from his coach before being sent back to the bench, further fuelling rumours of a move. However, Conte appears to have relented to give the former CSKA Moscow winger his first start of the season, as Juventus look to extend their winning streak to three matches. Also returning to the side, according to the giornalaccio rosa dello Sport, is Alessandro Del Piero, who will partner Mirko Vucinic in attack. Alessandro Matri's winning goal at the weekend was not enough to prevent him from dropping to the bench. Former Italy international Fabio Grosso will also drop out, to be replaced by Paolo De Ceglie, who returns having been suspended for the trip to Siena.

We have played two games. The path is very long," he told Tuttosport. "We have had two useful results, two positive results, but there are 36 games remaining. From this point of view, we have not achieved anything." Wednesday evening's match against Bologna is only Juventus' second at their new stadium, and fans will be hoping for a repeat of the performance which saw their side defeat Parma 4-1 in their opening game at the Juventus Stadium.

Serie A Week 4 - 21/9/2011 (08:45 p.m.) - Juventus Arena - Turin Antonio Conte: 'It will be tough to beat Bologna' Juventus boss believes their Serie A opponents will provide a tough challenge for his team, and spoke on the possible rotation of players ahead of the match. Sep 21, 2011 Juventus coach Antonio Conte believes that Serie A opponents Bologna could prove to be a difficult opposition ahead of their fixture on Wednesday. With the Old Lady having won their first two league games of the season, which included victories over Parma and Siena, the Italian coach has suggested that Bologna could spell trouble if his players do not stay focused. "It will be tough to beat them [bologna], because they're hungry for points. There is too much enthusiasm, and everything will overturn on us at the first thing that goes wrong. We have to take to the pitch with humility," Conte said, according to La giornalaccio rosa dello Sport. The coach also spoke about the importance of the squad being in a positive mental state leading into the fixture. "We must sweat blood, think like a big team but have the attitude of a small one. Always. We have to stay attentive, because nothing is easy." he said. Speaking about possible squad rotations for the match against Bologna, Conte suggested that there were a few options under consideration, and that players would be chosen based on tactics and the opposition. "I'm not worried about the physical conditioning. I'll make my squad choices based on the opponent and the tactical attitude." he said. "The pairing of Vucinic and Del Piero? They are central strikers and they can play together. But there are others as well. Whoever plays will have to want to play both offence and defence." One player would could feature in the match is newly signed Chilean midfielder Arturo Vidal. "Vidal is an excellent player. He gives us an alternative in the middle and he knows how to change the rhythm. But I have to make some choices." Conte admitted. "In order to play Vidal I have to give a rest to either Pirlo or Marchisio, unless they allow me to play with 12. There shouldn't be a big deal made of it; I have to make choices." Bologna will be looking to end their poor start to the season, which has resulted in two losses from their two opening fixtures against Fiorentina and Lecce.
