What They're Saying
Juventus manager Max Allegri (Eatsleepsport.com): "I am not worried. The goals we conceded [against Fiorentina] are mistakes that must be analyzed, identified and avoided. We have to improve these things, but we're still in mid-March and in the running for all three competitions."
Sassuolo manager Eusebio Di Francesco (via Forza Italian Football): "We will not start the match with a defeatist attitude. We will play the match in the right way, but we will also understand that we are playing the strongest team in the championship."
