Juventus will aim to climb to the summit on the Serie A standings table this weekend when the Old Lady take on Lecce at Stadio Via del Mare.
After making it to the Coppa Italia semi-finals with a 4-0 victory over Frosinone, Juve extended their winning run to six games in all competitions when they defeated Sassuolo 3-0 on Tuesday.
As Massimiliano Allegri's side have gone 17 competitive games without a loss (W14 D3), Lecce have won just once in their last 16 games across all competitions (D7 L8). Roberto D'Aversa's side last faced a 1-0 away loss against Lazio at the weekend.
