​Defending champions Juventus welcome Cagliari to the Allianz Stadium on Saturday, hoping to maintain their six point lead over second placed Inter at the top of Serie A.

Massimiliano Allegri’s side have dropped just two points in all competitions, having drawn with Genoa in their penultimate league match – which ended an eight match winning streak in the league – and are hoping to go 14 consecutive matches unbeaten with a victory against the Sardinian outfit.

Meanwhile, I Rossoblu sit 12th in Serie A and could move into the top half of the table – should they earn a surprise three points in Turin.
