Scudetto showdown
by rincon Sun Apr 22, 2018 11:41 am
Tonight 8:45 CET is the Scudetto match, Juve-Napoli.
Juve sits at the top of the table with 85 points, 4 more than Napoli with 5 games to go. A Juve win all but seals the title. A Napoli win tightens the race and with their easier calendar (Juve has Roma, Inter and CI Milan coming up) would make a scudetto run a reality.
Both have been shy of top form lately with Juve dropping points @Crotone 4 days ago and Napoli drawing to Milan last weekend. Other than that the teams are mostly fine.
Juve just recovered Bernardeschi, Cuadrado and Howedes. De Sciglio and Lichtsteiner are out. Pjanic's and Dybala's fitness for the game is in question. Napoli has everyone healthy except Goulham who is out for the season.
Napoli's lineup writes itself as always:
Reina; Rui, Koulibaly, Albiol, Hysaj; Hamsik, Jorginho, Allan; Insigne, Mertens, Callejon
Juve's is more complicated with tons of speculation about changes, Pjanic's and Dybala's condition being the main thing. Very few things are known and Allegri didn't clarify anything in the press conference. Maybe:
Buffon; Asamoah, Chiellini, Benatia, Howedes; Matuidi, Khedira, Pjanic, Costa; Dybala, Higuain

Scudetto is done to 90 %
Juve never lose at home in Serie A , just 3 times in last 4 years ( 90 % of victories I think)
Napoli are not even good at this period
2-0 or 3-1 expected

Napoli will give everything they got, it's their last chance. Anything else but a win will crown them as official vice-champions.
I expect Napoli to come heavy at us in the 1st half, and we'll have to catenaccio them. Then Juve will turn the gas ON in 2nd half trying to score a goal or two.
2-0
HIGUAIN, DYBALA
Our home record is impressive but the magic is gone since we lost against Lazio in october. I don't see it as a huge factor today.

They do this to make it seem as if its a race, so then you think its a hard won Scudetto
Not fooling me, its been a snooze-cruise for the past 5 years and it ain't changing

We can't all race for the trofeo della 6th place brother
Next year hopefully we can win the double del Benevento

The only league worth watching these days. Jjuve should win, they would more than likely win but I hope Napoli really puts up a fight today.

Almost the same line up we played away to Napoli earlier this season. I think the only change is Howedes for De Sciglio

He prefers City and maybe even Pool over you.
If you want to scout your rivals' targets then good for you i guess

Scouts a player that's been one of the better midfielders in Serie A for the past 3-4 seasons
Just firenze things
Next you're going to tell us how Mourinho could turn Lamar into a 40 goal a season player

Jorginho isn't going anywhere, his agent is fishing for a better deal

I think they'll sign Torreira and Jorginho will move, most likely outside of Italy

Terrible GK , Livorno and Latina relegated in Serie C because of his mistakes
Livorno fans even punched him for it
