Romalu Lukaku and Achraf Hakimi were suspended last week, but are expected to start for the Nerazzurri.

“They are crucial for Inter, we know their characteristics well and we should be very concentrated,” Pirlo admitted.

Leonardo Bonucci could be rested against the Nerazzurri, with Arthur and Alvaro Morata who are also in serious doubt.

“[Gigi] Buffon and [Dejan] Kulusevski will start,” Pirlo revealed.

“I am reassured by the mental aspect. We are very positive, we believe in what we do and it is a nice starting point. We have specific goals that we want to achieve and we are working on that.

“Defeats have convinced us that we can do many things, we have qualities in the group, 23 starters who can play in any game.”

Juventus have won nince matches out of ten since the beginning of the year.

“We are more compact, we play as a team and we help each other,” Pirlo said.

“We don’t concede many goals and that’s not only thanks to the defence. Everyone is having the right attitude.”
