They play Atalanta today at home.Televised on Sky Sports 3 4.25 p.m

Maybe a nice little warm up to our match v Rochdale for those holed up at home as a result of Snow.

This is a cup game. They were also due to play them on Sunday in the league but the match was snowed off.

Higauin is still not fit for tonight's match.

82 minutes gone, and whilst a goal to the good from a penalty they've seemed bang average at best.

We know Dybala just scored a 93rd minute winner away to Lazio for a 0-1 victory.
Can’t help thinking that’ll put a bit of wind in their sails for Wednesday.

I've watched a bit of them since we were drawn against them and they've never really impressed me, they've seemed really lucky to get the wins they have, they were pretty crap against us for 75% of the match. Still expect Wednesday to be tough though..

Brilliant goal by Dybala. He worries me.

Did very little for other 93 mins. That was their first shot on target. They are basically an Italian United. You rarely watch them and think wow but somehow they always get the result which is the worry. I honesty think a cagey game will suit them. Need to try and get a couple of early goals and put it to bed.

And now Napoli lost, giving Juve the advantage in the league (a point behind but a game in hand)

I wouldn't believe any of it. They'll be pulling every trick in the book for this one.

Chiellini was utterly embarrassing in the first leg, and I expect him to be 10 times as bad this time round.

Our lads need to keep their heads cool and their focus on point - and not to concede two stupid early goals!!!!

This game requires us to come out aggressively and take the game to them - you can’t sit back against Juve. You have to smash ‘em.

All I know is I have had a bet with a Juve fan who owns a bar in Tenerife that if we win he gives me free drinks for two weeks. F*** the CL got to win for the sake of my beer belly

We've got to be brave enough to press them high like we did after we went 2-0 down.

If the nerves kick in I fear for us.

I feel perversely confident about this one. Could be a classic glory glory night...

Mandzukic and Bernadeschi out of the squad but Dybala and Matuidi in. Higuain and De Sciglio both still there, thought they'd be injured :(

Mandzukic out is a big big plus though. Hes a grafter and a real nightmare for crosses to the back post and set pieces.
