Juventus and Napoli Won’t Reveal the Strategy

DBasia.news – Ahead of the match between two teams, both Juventus and Napoli have the positive asset. In the sixth Giornata, Juventus defeated Bologna with a 2-0 score. In the meantime, Napoli also defeated Parma, 3-0. Now, Juventus lead the standing with a three-point gap with Napoli as the runner-up.

Interestingly, when asked about the strategy ahead of the important match, both coaches chose to make it a secret. Certainly, playing against Bologna, Massimiliano Allegri rotates his team. He will put Mario Mandzukic, Federico Bernardeschi, Wojciech Szczesny, and Giorgio Chiellini to the bench.

“On Saturday it’s a head-to-head with Napoli and it’ll certainly be a great game. I don’t have a line-up in my head right now, as on Friday in training we’ll see everyone together and decide,” Allegri said.

Ancelotti also applied the rotation strategy when Napoli defeated Parma. He got even more radical with 9 changes in the starter compared to the previous match. The names who are previously benched gained the trust.

Let’s say Orestis Karnezis in the goalkeeper position. Next, Kevin Malcuit as the left defender. Nikola Maksimovic in the central defender. Also, in the midfield, there were Amadou Diawara and Fabian Ruiz. What made it greater, despite the 80 percent change, Napoli still played dominantly.

Hence, Ancelotti feels confused who should play against Juventus. “To be honest, I’ve given myself a real headache picking the line-up for Saturday,” Ancelotti said.

“Because those who played today proved they deserve it and so did those who played at the weekend. We are in good shape and all the players are motivated,” the former Paris Saint-Germain coach added.
