Despite the draw against Atalanta, Juventus have extended their lead over Napoli, bringing the distance to 9 points. Tomorrow at 12:30, they'll face Giampaoli's Sampdoria at the Allianz Stadium. Massimiliano Allegri has answered some questions in the classic pre-game press conference: "We aren't the one, and the the referee isn't either, able to stop a game, only public order can. This being said, I don't tolerate any kind of racism and insults to dead people or tragedies. We need to enter schools, think about children. I'm sorry about it because there were so many people there on 26th, so many families, children, that are the future of Italy".
About the game:" Matuidi was ill and I left him home for the Atalanta game, Benatia had a slight inflammation, they are now back in the group and so is Bernardeschi. We've got a difficult game ahead, Sampdoria are in great form and are fighting for a Champions League spot. We'll have to win the three points and end the year on a positive note".
"Szczesny and Rugani will play. Bonucci will rest while I'm not sure who will start between Alex Sandro and Spinazzola. Ronaldo will be back and Douglas Costa is in a great moment. The substitutions will be important tomorrow, it will be a long game and we'll need support from the stadium".
Juventus in crisis? "When I hear Juventus is in crisis after the draw at Bergamo, I think it's a joke. Even if we'd end up losing tomorrow, we'll finish the first phase with 50 points and the first position in Champions League. This team is doing an amazing job. Winning tomorrow would be really great but it doesn't end there, we'll need more".
About the Scudetto race: "Napoli is our biggest contender. They're having a great season, there still are a lot of games and the direct clash". About the Manchester United job: "I'm happy at Juventus, and there are many games to win before the end of the season".
