Sissoko will make his first start in a Juventus jersey tonight and will be keen to impress his new teammates.
3' Renzo Ulivieri will be desperate for a victory tonight as his team try and fight their way out of the relegation zone. Nedved tests Campagnolo who makes a routine save.
1 We are underway in Reggio Calabria as Claudio Ranieri has decided to rest Gigi Buffon so Emmanuele Belardi will start in his place. David Trezeguet has still not recovered from a virus so Palladino will start alongside Alex Del Piero upfront.
