Angelo Ogbonna trusts Juventus are “unshakeable” despite seeing their Serie A unbeaten record ended by Genoa.
Last night the Bianconeri lost 1-0 at Marassi and that allowed Roma to catch them at the top of the table on 22 points.
“We are mentally solid and unshakeable,” Ogbonna told Jtv. “We are only in Week 9, as last season we had 22 points and Roma were five in front of us.
“It is only normal that there are big expectations around us, but we are relaxed, knowing we must be concentrated on the finish line.
“We slipped up yesterday, but we immediately have a game against Empoli to make up for it. We will find the same difficulties we had at Genoa, because smaller teams clam up against us and it’s difficult to find spaces.
“We must therefore be wary of counter-attacks and become more clinical.”
The Empoli tie is brought forward to Saturday so that Juventus can prepare for their Champions League clash with Olympiacos in Turin.
“We have a good chance of qualifying and must give our all, but the help of the fans will be fundamental and on Tuesday I really hope they can be our 12th Man.”
Juve lost 1-0 in Athens and are three points adrift of Olympiacos and Atletico Madrid in their Champions League group.
