Juventus have a 100 per cent record in the Champions League and have yet to concede a goal in the competition this campaign, in stark contrast to life in Serie A.
Allegri’s men are currently 16 points behind leaders Napoli and Milan in the Italian top flight and are not looking like a competitor for the top four and must fight for qualify for the Champions League next term.
Juventus are ninth after 11 games and Claudio Marchisio stressed it reminds him of the season when the Old Lady finished seventh under Luigi Delneri in 2010-11.
The Bianconeri arrive from three Serie A games without a win, picking up one point against reigning champions Inter and back-to-back 2-1 defeats to Sassuolo and Hellas Verona.
The last win came in the Champions League two weeks ago, when Juventus picked up three points against Zenit St Petersburg in Russia.
Dejan Kulusevski entered to replace injured Federico Bernardeschi and the Swede scored the winner, when Juventus picked up their second 1-0 win in Group H.
Juventus sit first with nine points from the first three games, beating Chelsea in Turin and Malmö FF in Sweden prior to the match against the Russians.
But the crisis in Serie A overshadows the results in the Champions League, as Juventus aim to go beyond the last 16 for the first time since Allegri’s last stint with the club.
Juventus have scored five goals through five different goalkscorers and conceded none in the three first games, hoping to qualify for the knockout stages already tonight, when Zenit arrive at the Allianz Stadium in Turin.
A win will secure a place in the last 16 for the Old Lady, who sit six points above their opponents at third place.

Can I get an update from the ritiro?
When is bedtime at the ritiro?
Is a barber working in the hotel or does Rabiot have to get help rom the outside?
What are the odds McKennie empties the mini bar at his room before he checks out?
Considering Moratas difficulties finding the net, did he get help from staff to find his room?
I wish Juventus a contined happy ritiro and god bless.
Arise Lord Allegri, cometh the hour, cometh the man.
Mad Max has everything under control in the ritiro. Rabiot and Bentancur have been sleeping till 4pm in the afternoon. Allegri tried to wake them up, but the sleeping pills used for match days were still too strong. He will ask Agnelli to reward them both with new 5 year contracts and £10 million a season.
McKennie has been playing PS5 and showing Max catenaccio dance moves on TikTok.
De Ligt has been trying to escape the prison all week and seeing if there are any flights going to London.
Chiesa has been locked in the dungeon until further notice for breaking catenaccio rules co authored by Allegri. He has been slapped silly and is being educated on the art of the slow pass.
Last but not least, good old Alex Sandro is giving after school classes on the delicate delights of the sideways pass. Dybala is very confused as the new 11-0-0 formation has him trying out as new center back.
