Preview: Juventus vs. Fiorentina

Juventus coach Antonio Conte could hand a debut to Nicolas Anelka for this Sunday's visit of Fiorentina.

The French striker joins the club as they are top of Serie A, although their lead has been cut down to three points.

Claudio Marchisio has been missing the last few weeks with a bruised hip and could make a return to the squad, but is unlikely to be rushed back into the starting lineup.

Giorgio Chiellini is still missing through injury, while Simone Pepe and Nicklas Bendtner are also on the treatment table.

Matias Fernandez and Ahmed Hegazy are both out injured, and Giuseppe Rossi is expected to be out until March.

Alberto Aquilani is back from suspension, giving Vincenzo Montella another option in midfield.
