Juventus' Antonio Conte: Roma will play an aggressive game
Posted Monday, December 12, 2011 by YAHOO Sport
Juventus coach Antonio Conte is eagerly anticipating Monday's Serie A encounter away at Roma, and expects the Stadio Olimpico outfit to pose a stern test for the Bianconeri.
The Turin club is still unbeaten after 13 league games and currently sits at the top of the table, but its trainer feels that Luis Enrique's men could put in an aggressive display in an attempt to end their opponents' hot streak.
"The match against Roma is an important test for us. We have to be prepared for all the problems they could cause us," Conte told the pre-match press conference. "Roma will be looking to dictate play and put in an aggressive display.
"Roma and Juve are two of the teams with the most possession and I see similarities between both sides. I'm a big fan of their style of play. Like us, they always try to take the game to their opponents and dominate. We have to be fully concentrated both on and off the ball."
Monday's game at the Stadio Olimpico kicks off at 2:45 p.m. ET.
