Max Allegri has urged Juventus to remember how Lazio ended their run of 41 home wins and praised Alex Sandro, who is ‘like a new player’.

Lazio came away with a 2-1 victory from Juventus Stadium last season, while Alex Sandro’s performances for the Bianconeri in 2017-18 were regularly criticised.

“Lazio are a well-coached team, who beat us last season after 41 consecutive victories at home, so we’re wary of them,” the Coach said at a Press conference.

“Lazio are a well-coached team, who beat us last season after 41 consecutive victories at home, so we’re wary of them,” the Coach said at a Press conference.

“Dybala and Matuidi? I must decide whether to play them. CR7 is good both in the middle and out wide. Alex Sandro? He’s like a new player but he must keep pushing himself.

“I expect great enthusiasm tomorrow. Bonucci must also be evaluated like everyone else on the field.

“He has great enthusiasm and always has passion. Football is simple, you need to get to know each other more and more.

“There will be improvements. Until now, Ronaldo has had six efforts on goal, so he must be ready to respond.

“Lazio are strong and well-drilled. They play on the break and have Milinkovic, who gives them physicality and class.”
