Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri admits it will not be an easy task to beat strong Lazio under Maurizio Sarri.

         “Zebra” is playing with confidence after winning five league games in a row, which the team prepares to open the home to another big battle. “Blue-White Eagles”, which Allegri admits is not an easy ufabet game.

         “I expected it to be a difficult game because Lazio are a very strong team. It will be a different game than Verona, having said that if there is a goal after 10 minutes everything could change.

         “Sarri is a great coach who knows how to organize his defense very well and has a lot of quality players who can create situations with both passing and counterattacks. We both won Serie A titles with Juve, but in terms of personalities, Sarri and I are completely different.”

Allegri said, “I expect a difficult match because Lazio are a strong side who are doing very well. It will be a different type of game to the one with Verona. Having said that, if there’s a goal after 10 minutes then everything could change.

“Sarri is a great coach who knows how to organise his teams defensively and has a lot of quality players who can create situations both with passing moves and on the counter.

“We both won the Serie A title at Juve, but in terms of personality, Sarri and I are polar opposites.”
