Juventus arrives at the Sinigaglia on Friday at 8:45 p.m. and there will be a sold-out crowd, coach Thiago Motta’s Bianconeri will aim to win three points but coach Cesc Fabregas’ boys want redemption after the defeat in Bologna and what better occasion than against their titled opponents? The calciomercato has been closed for a few days but the echo of the great work done by the white-blue club has bounced all over the national and international newspapers. Anticipation is high among Como fans both to see the newcomers at work on the field and to win crucial points in the race for salvation. In today’s press conference presenting the match, the Como coach thanked the players who have gone elsewhere: “I want to thank all the guys who have left Como in recent weeks because they have been important and together we have written an important page in Como’s history by conquering the Serie A.”
Speaking of Juventus here are the thoughts of the white-blue coach……
“Juventus is a great club with a great history and a great coach who has great ideas. This match is a big challenge for us and we will have to face it with great respect and maximum attention. It will be, as always, important to play as we know how while maintaining our identity and mentality, only in this way will we be able to try to put them in trouble.”
Right now, with the many players who have arrived on the Lario shore, the choice for Coach Fabregas has expanded. Here is the unavailable situation….
“Sergi Roberto, Alberto Moreno, Kempf and Gabrielloni will still be missing. Van der Brempt is available but not yet ready to play the whole game. Vojvodo is currently injured and it will probably be a couple of weeks before we have him available. Smolcic could play.”
Forward will be without Fadera, disqualified for two turns, but there is no shortage of alternatives….
“Ikoné, although he has different characteristics, could replace him. Douvikas is well and is a physically strong player who can score goals and, depending on the course of the matches, can also pair up with Cutrone. We have players with quality and everyone knows that coming in from the bench is as important as who starts the game.”
