The pressure is still on Max Allegri after disappointing stalemates with Inter and Borussia Monchengladbach.

He was criticised for not starting Paulo Dybala, but the Argentine leads the attack today with Mario Mandzukic and Roberto Pereyra.

Juan Cuadrado and Andrea Barzagli are among those rested, while Stephan Lichtsteiner and Martin Caceres are the only injury absentees.

Simone Padoin is given the nod as a makeshift right-back.

Atalanta are doing remarkably well this season in eighth place and are fresh from a 3-0 demolition job on Carpi.

Marcelo Estigarribia misses out, but Mauricio Pinilla completes the trident attack with Maxi Moralez and D’Alessandro.

The Orobici haven’t won in Turin since a 1-0 result sealed by Claudio Caniggia back in October 1989, losing nine of their last 10 visits.

Home and away, Juventus have won all their last 10 meetings with the Bergamo club.

Surprisingly, whatever happens this afternoon, Atalanta will still be at least two points clear of Juve in the table.

Juventus: Buffon; Padoin, Bonucci, Chiellini, Evra; Khedira, Marchisio, Pogba; Pereyra; Mandzukic, Dybala

Atalanta: Sportiello; Bellini, Toloi, Paletta, Dramé; Grassi, Kurtic, De Roon; Maxi Moralez, Pinilla, D'Alessandro
