Back in three consecutive 1-1, Juventus want to return to success in Empoli.
"It is a match to win, an important stage to follow up on recent results - says Massimiliano Allegri on the eve of the away match - and a tough match will be needed: we need to recharge our batteries mentally and prepare ourselves as best we can".
In the first leg, Andreazzoli's team made a nasty joke on the Bianconeri by imposing themselves at the Allianz Stadium: "They are difficult to face and it is always complicated to play at Empoli - says the Juventus coach, who returns to his Tuscany as an opponent - and having no problems with rankings are carefree ".
In the meantime, twelve matches from the end of the championship, the final projections begin: "
I do not say the quota to go to the Champions League because we are in full battle - Allegri's accounts on the positions that count - while for the Scudetto 85 points will be enough: if the three of the 'Ave Maria' in front will play it (Inter, Milan, Naples, ed), while it is mathematically impossible for us to reach that goal. "Fourth place, on the other hand, remains the goal, even if tomorrow there will be many absences:" I have a training session, let's see who is still standing - jokes the technical on the situation in the infirmary - I'm sorry for McKennie, who has unique characteristics among our midfielders.
As well as sorry for Kaio Jorge, who suffered a very bad injury.
We look forward to seeing them soon, as will Chiesa, while Dybala could perhaps return for the match against Fiorentina. "
