Coach Max Allegri warns that Juventus will need 'self-awareness and humility' and promises Gonzalo Higuain will play tomorrow.
The Bianconeri are still finding their ideal form, and they'll be playing a friendly against West Ham tomorrow at 13:00 Uk time as part of that process.
“They played the preliminary of the Europa League and they'll certainly be in a better condition than us,” Allegri told the Press. “Everyone will be available but [Stephan] Lichtsteiner, who has a bad back.

The Bianconeri are still finding their ideal form, and they'll be playing a friendly against West Ham tomorrow at 13:00 Uk time as part of that process.
“They played the preliminary of the Europa League and they'll certainly be in a better condition than us,” Allegri told the Press. “Everyone will be available but [Stephan] Lichtsteiner, who has a bad back.
“We haven't been working together very long, and some players have done a month of work while others only 10 days. We had some training sessions together, others in separation.
“The team's quality, technically speaking, is markedly higher. This doesn't mean that the Scudetto is in our pockets, much less the Champions League final, absolutely not.
“We need to be aware of our strength but above all we need the humility that is necessary to win the championship. We'll have to reach March still fighting in all competitions, and fighting to win.
“We'll face many combative teams that want to challenge the Juventus hegemony.”
Allegri promised that new signing Gonzalo Higuain would be on the pitch tomorrow.
“You'll see him, and not just for a few minutes. Juventus carried out a great market campaign, signing five new and excellent players.
“But integrating five new players is never easy. They have different characteristics than the ones we worked with and they don't know each other. This year we'll have to do that faster, it can't take us 10 games like last season. Even though we did win the Supercoppa.”
