Juventus will begin the week ahead of their Champions League knockout match with Atletico Madrid with a league tie against Frosinone. There was good news for the bianconeri, with the recovery of Bonucci, Barzagli, and Chiellini and their inclusion in the squad was confirmed by Allegri in his pre-match press conference: "Bonucci will play against Frosinone. Chiellini will be on the bench and could play a half. Barzagli also has recovered, he is feeling fresh. Who will play in defense? Rugani had a knock on his flexor and we need to look at him tomorrow, if he can't play then Caceres will. In midfield Matuidi is still out, and three of the other four available will start. Dybala will be back at forward. Ronaldo will start the match. He's always been a starter, I don't see why that should change tomorrow.
"The Champions League is nearly a week away, first we must focus on beating Frosinone and getting three points. We should not focus on advancing over Atletico, this is a team who was made two finals in the last five years. We need to be tough, I fthink there are 7-8 teams who can make the semifinal, even though only four can. At Juve I am very happy, in my work and with the club's. I am concentrating on brining home what we have to, the results have been good but so far we have won just the Supercoppa. We still need to win the league and try to win the Champions League, but we will take it one step at a time."
