Barzagli: 'Juve must stop conceding first'

Juventus centre-back Andrea Barzagli has admitted that his side must stop conceding first in games as they will not always be able to turn it around.

The Old Lady have conceded first in each of their last four competitive games, but they have managed to take the points in the league games against Chievo on Wednesday night and Verona on Sunday.

"We created a host of chances, and doing that against a side who just defend isn't easy," Barzagli told the club's official website. "We have conceded first too often recently, and it's not always possible to recover.

"Now we turn our attentions to the derby, but I don't think Torino will only be thinking about defending.

"Last year they played their own game, looking to catch us on the on the counter attack. I think they'll line up in the same way as us and go for it."

Juve take on Torino on Sunday at 2pm.
