Published on September 28, 2021, Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri has emphasized the importance of taking the game to Chelsea in their upcoming Champions League match.

Allegri's team has struggled in the early stages of the season, failing to win any of their opening four league games for the first time in 60 years. However, they have shown signs of improvement, securing victories in their last two Serie A matches and their Champions League opener against Malmo.

Despite facing several injuries, including those of Paulo Dybala and Alvaro Morata, Allegri is optimistic about his team's chances. He has expressed his confidence in Moise Kean, who will be deployed as the lone striker, saying, "He has to play and score. One thing he knows how to do well is scoring. He has to improve when he has to play with the team, in terms of individual technique."

Defender Giorgio Chiellini has also spoken about the upcoming match, stating that no extra motivation is needed, as the team is well-prepared for the challenge.

Allegri's team will face a tough test against Chelsea, who are strong on counter-attacks and dead balls. The Juventus coach has warned that his team will need to be good all over the pitch and have patience, but also have fun, as they have improved in recent games.
