Juventus vs Napoli Match Report
Last nights clash between arguably Italy's finest was a very important one for both sides. Roma were held to a 1-1 draw with Sassuolo in the earlier game which meant that the winners of the game would move to just one point behind the leaders.
Juve went out knowing what they had to do and had the dream start when Isla's shot found Tevez who flicked it on to Llorente who was able to flick it past Reina from close range in just the 2nd minute. Juve were on fire and bulldozing the Neapolitan defence and moments after the goal Bonucci should have doubled the lead but his header was saved from point blank distance by Reina.
The Bianconeri came out in the second half full of confidence after an amazing first half performance where Reina kept them in the game however it seemed that Benitez had, had a word with his players who came out playing like a different side. They were pushing Juve and Insinge, Higuain and Hamsik all having their fair share of chances but when we received a free kick 25 yards out in the 70th minute Napoli could sense trouble. It was perfect Pirlo range and he didn't disappoint with a great free kick gave the Bianconeri a two goal cushion. However not long after Napoli could have opened up the game once again when Buffon was called upon to make a world class save. Despite this the game was sealed in the 80th minute when Paul Pogba shot a wonder goal to seal the victory. Minutes after new signing Angelo Ogbonna was sent off for two bookable offences but this was not enough to give Napoli a chance to get back in the game.
The performance against Napoli really was the best I have seen Juve play in a long time. It was a crucial game to win and everyone performed even the likes of Isla who has had a lot of criticism lately due to poor performances impressed. This game shows that Juve's bad start is now in the past and being a single point behind Roma the confidence in the Juve camp is high. Llorente is scoring the goals, the defence is keeping clean sheets and the midfield is one of the best in Europe the way Juve are playing at the moment really is impressive.

Juventus vs Napoli Match Preview
Tonight the Bianconeri host Napoli in a very important league tie. The teams sit level on points in 2nd and 3rd with Roma just 3 points ahead. Both teams will be wanting to keep up the chase with Roma who conceded their first amount of points to Torino last week.
Both teams will be heading into the tie on great form with both Juve and Napoli having won 5 of their last 6 games. Despite this Juve go into the game on the back of a draw to Real Madrid however I feel that will not affect the performance as Juve played great and will surely have confidence going into the game. On the other hand Napoli won midweek against Marseille so will be heading into tonights game surely high in confidence.
Fernando Llorente who was a midweek hero expects another tough game as he said "Napoli is a club of high level, they are doing really well and we will have to hand a superb performance to come out winners." Rafa Benitez meanwhile feels that it will be even harder for Napoli as he said recently "Juve are favourites to win because they have one extra day to prepare for the encounter."

Team News
Juventus are expected to line up with Llorente partnering Carlos Tevez up top after their recent impressive performances.
Napoli will be without Giandomenico Mesto who is expected to be out for 4 months with a knee injury.
Prediction
The odds are against Napoli in this tie with the Neapolitans not winning against Juve in Turin for 4 years but I feel Napoli have a chance of breaking that duct today. Their attack has been in amazing form with Marek Hamsik, Jose Callejon and Gonzalo Higuain scoring 17 of the 24 goals Napoli have scored this year. Nevertheless Juve seem to be finding their top form once again with 5 wins out of 6 and a very impressive performance against Real Madrid where the Bianconeri were very unlucky not to come out winners. I think that the home advantage will prove pivotal tonight and therefore I am going for 2-0 Juventus win.

Juve News Today 8/11/13
Spanish striker Fernando Llorente who has had a rather poor start to his Juve career now seems to be finding his feet despite this reports in Italy have suggested that Juve have rejected a bid of £20 million from Arsenal.
Buffon who has been facing a lot of criticism over the past year has been backed by his agent who has said that Buffon is still the best goalkeeper in the world.
According to reports Thiago Motta's contract talks between PSG have stalled so it comes as no surprise that Europe's finest have decided to show interest in him with Juve being one of the favourites to sign him.
It is believed that Juventus have sent out scouts to Scotland to watch Heart of Midlothian defender Jordan McGhee. The 17 year old is said to be steady rather than spectacular and a formal offer is a long way off however some English clubs are also watching him.
Juve stars Carlos Tevez, Fernando Llorente, Fabio Quagliarella and Andrea Barzagli all took part in the Bwin Skill Series. The players were put to the test with numerous different challenges but Tevez come out victorious. Have a look at the video on the link below !!

Juventus vs Real Madrid Match Report
Tonights Champions League encounter with Real Madrid was an important one with it possibly influencing whether Juve make it through to the later stages of the competition. Juve started well and went ahead but after going 2-1 down it looked like the game was going to go down hill but they managed to salvage a draw.
Juventus started the first half on the front foot and were playing aggressively knowing they had to win the game meanwhile it seemed like Real Madrid had opted for more of a defensive style of playing. Despite this the first chance of the game came Real Madrid's way when Ronaldo's shot went wide from a rather tight angle. Two minutes later Tevez was taken down in the box after some great play yet referee Howard Webb decided not to give the penalty. Juve kept up the pressure with Llorente forcing a world class save from Casillas and againten minutes later Casillas had to make a decent save from Vidal's long range shot. Juve's great play finally payed off in the 39th minute when Paul Pogba was brought down in the box by Varane and this time unlike earlier in the game Juventus were rewarded a penalty. Vidal stepped up and as usual Vidal placed his penalty perfectly in the top corner.
Juve came out to the second half on the front foot but after a poor mistake from Caceres who had been excellent made a poor mistake which gifted Real Madrid the ball and Ronaldo put Madrid level. Juve seemed to lose their edge when Madrid scored and not long after the goal Alonso hit the bar. Juve then were unlucky to go ahead when Pepe blocked Tevez's shot off the line to deny Juve going forward. Juve looked to be back in the game and in control like most of the first half however they were caught on the counter attack and Bale scored from the edge of the box. Unlike the first Real Madrid goal Juve reacted well and it was not long after that Llorente put the scores level again. The game became end to end but there was no real golden chances to win the game and it ended 2-2.
In my opinion we were the better team tonight and we deserved the win and were unlucky once again against Real Madrid. Despite a draw not being what we wanted it was thankfully not necessarily what we needed due to the result in the other game however it does make our path that little bit harder.
