Juventus - Catania: Preview

juventus - cataniaAntonio Conte's men are firmly in control of Serie A having secured a precious point at Napoli last week, and will be targeting three points when the Sicilians come to town

PROBABLE LINEUPS
juveBuffon, Barzagli, Bonucci, Chiellini, L'steiner, Pogba, Pirlo, Marchisio, Asamoah, Vucinic, Giovinco
catania Andujar, Bellusci, Spolli, Rolin, Alvarez, Izco, Lodi, Almiron, Marchese, Castro, Gomez

Juventus return to domestic league action against Catania after booking their place in the quarter-finals of the Champions League following a comfortable 2-0 victory (5-0 agg) over Celtic.

The Bianconeri will be able to field a pretty much full-strength team against the Sicilians with the exception of Arturo Vidal, who is suspended following his booking last week against Napoli, meaning Paul Pogba will continue in midfield.

Mirko Vucinic and Sebastian Giovinco are likely to return the starting XI, even though Fabio Quagliarella and Alessandro Matri played against the Hoops.

However, Conte will be without Martin Caceres, Paolo De Ceglie, Nicolas Anelka, Simone Pepe and Nicklas Bendtner.

Giorgio Chiellini, Andrea Barzagli, De Ceglie and Matri are one booking away from a suspension.

Meanwhile, for the visitors, Rolando Maran takes his eight-placed side to Juventus Stadium on the back of a 3-2 defeat to Inter.  

Defender Ciro Capuano, midfielder Pablo Barrientos and striker Gonzalo Bergessio are unavailable. Centre-back Nicola Legrottaglie is suspended.
