Serie A leaders welcome to Turin on Sunday, hoping to maintain their unbeaten record and one point lead over second placed Milan. ’s last trip to face the Bianconeri ended in a thrilling 3-3 draw, however Giuseppe Sannino will find it much tougher to repeat history. Mirko Vucinic has returned to full fitness, while new signing Simone Padoin should be named on the bench. Antonio Conte saw his side’s clash with Parma postponed in mid-week, and with seven wins from their ten home games this season, he will be confident of continuing their good form.

Siena also saw their game in mid-week postponed due to the weather, but have concerns over the availability of Zeljko Brkic and Francesco Bolzoni. Sannino’s men have collected just four points away from home all season, are without a victory in that time and have lost their last five on the road. The front pairing of Emannuel Calaio and Mattia Destro will be a tough test for the Juve backline, despite the Bianconeri possessing the strongest defence in Serie A.
