| Del Piero out of Lecce trip |
Saturday 6 December, 2008 |
|
Juventus are without captain Alessandro Del Piero for the trip to Lecce, but welcome back Cristiano Zanetti.
The star player, who celebrated his 250th goal for the club last week, is not in the squad for Sunday afternoon's encounter.
Del Piero is suffering from a muscular problem, so with David Trezeguet and Mauro Camoranesi also sidelined, the likely front pairing is Amauri and Vincenzo Iaquinta.
There is good news, though, as Zanetti is back in the side for the first time since the summer, when he suffered a serious right thigh strain.
Juventus squad: 3 Chiellini, 4 Mellberg, 6 Zanetti, 8 Amauri, 9 Iaquinta, 11 Nedved, 12 Chimenti, 13 Manninger, 19 Marchisio, 20 Giovinco, 21 Grygera, 22 Sissoko, 27 Ekdal, 28 Molinaro, 29 De Ceglie, 32 Marchionni, 33 Legrottaglie, 40 Rossi, 42 Pinsoglio, 45 Yago
