They have allowed just eight goals on the season

Behind the star-studded strike duo, there is a group of solid contributors who just go about their business without much fanfare. Goalkeeper Luca Castellazi has been one of the best in Italy in the early goings of the 2009-10 campaign and the defense as a whole have been a model of consistency.Samp have recorded points in four of their last five matches and outside of the lone loss of the season, a 2-0 loss to Fiorentina on Sept 23, haven't allowed more than one game all season. They have allowed just eight goals on the season.Predicted XI (4-4-2): Castellazi; Zauri, Rossi, Luchinni, Stankevicius; Mannini, Poli, Palombo, Ziegler; Cassano, Pazzini JUVENTUSUntil Wednesday's 1-0 win against Maccani Haifa in the Champions League, the Old Lady had failed to register a victory in a month's time. They got their first win in Serie A in five weeks against Siena, also by a 1-0 scoreline, on Sunday in an otherwise bland game to watch.The Stadio Olimpico, which was such an advantage for Juve last season, hasn't been kind thus far this year. Juve have scored just five goals in four games at home and while they are undefeated on home soil, they have only won two of those games.Injuries again are again mounting for Juve like they were at this point last season. Youth product Ciro Immobile will likely be called up for the match to fill the void left on the squad sheet by Iaquinta on the bench, but with both strikers on mediocre form, Sebastian Giovinco could be called into the squad for the second time in a week.Giovinco is the major factor in what kind of attack Ferrara utilizes against Doria.

Even when Iaquinta was healthy, Juve's stable of strikers could barely put any of their scoring chances on goal. In Sunday's 1-0 victory against Siena, Juve's lone shot on goal was the one Amauri scored. It was the same scoreline against Maccabi Haifa on Wednesday but the main difference was the formation that Ferrara used to create more offense.Switching to a 4-2-3-1 with Giovinco in the lineup brought a whole lot more creativity to the squad. The possession numbers were just about the same against Maccabi and Siena, but Juve were a much more potent side when Giovinco, Diego, and Mauro Camoranesi were playing behind the lone striker.Predicted XI (4-2-3-1): Buffon; Grosso, Cannavaro, Chiellini, Grygera; Sissoko, Melo; Giovinco, Diego, Camoranesi; Amauri.
