Coach Max Allegri says Juventus have been 'spoiled by four years at the top' but 'have time' to make good on their six-point deficit.
The Bianconeri had a terrible start to the season, losing the first two games and raising doubts about the team's play without the likes of Andrea Pirlo, Arturo Vidal and Carlos Tevez.
But Allegri is keeping a positive outlook, and in an interview with Tuttosport, he started out by discussing their Champions League campaign.

The Bianconeri had a terrible start to the season, losing the first two games and raising doubts about the team's play without the likes of Andrea Pirlo, Arturo Vidal and Carlos Tevez.
But Allegri is keeping a positive outlook, and in an interview with Tuttosport, he started out by discussing their Champions League campaign.
“We have an interesting group and some good challenges, and our objective is to qualify,” he said.
“But first we have to think about Chievo. Once the break is over we have to win our first game.
“We have zero points and we're six away from the top of the league, but it's a long championship and we'll have time to make good the distance.
“We'll have to be patient. After the break I'll get almost everyone back. We have an important month coming up and I'll face it with a full squad.”
Allegri then discussed the new situation for the Old Lady as they have to start from the bottom.
“It's true that we'd been spoiled, having spent four years at the top.
“But now we've got to get used to catching up, and this is something that can happen in football, otherwise things would be too easy.
“I have an excellent and balanced squad that I can work with.
“The club did what they intended to at the beginning of the season, changing a number of elements.
“When you renew your team it's understandable that some problems may arise.”
