Juventus coach Andrea Pirlo confirmed Giorgio Chiellini will be involved against Ferencvaros and said Paulo Dybala might be rested 'in view of Sunday'.

The Bianconeri travel to Hungary for the third round in the Champions League and Pirlo wants to see his players control the game at the Puskas Arena.

“The points are fundamental, but the important thing is to carry on our project,” Pirlo told Sky Sport Italia.

“We must play a big game in terms of possession; we must control the game. This gives an extra strength to win the match.”

Pirlo revealed captain Giorgio Chiellini will play in Hungary and said Argentine forward Paulo Dybala ‘will be useful’ for the Old Lady.

“Yes, Chiellini has trained well,” Pirlo added. “He recovered from his injury and he’ll be available tomorrow night.

“Dybala is fine, I spoke to him again this morning. It’s normal that after three games, a bit of physical and mental fatigue builds up.

“The lad is fine, he needs to work and keep his physical level up. He’s important and will be useful for the rest of the championship.

“Tomorrow he could be rested in view of Sunday, but he must remain ready. We are many now and there’s room for them to recover for the next matches.”

Pirlo admitted he could rotate in the middle against Ferencvaros tomorrow.

“The attitude is the same, the players change from game to game, but the positions are the same. [Weston] McKennie played against Spezia, [Aaron] Ramsey was there two games ago, even Kulusevski before that.

“It doesn’t matter who plays, the model remains the same. At Cesena, Arthur was a bit deep because they played with three midfielders, but the tactical approach remains the same.”
