Juventus have received a significant boost heading into Saturday's game against AC Milan with the news that Giorgio Chiellini is fit to play.
Chiellini has been sidelined by the thigh injury which forced him to sit out the recent international fixtures and it appears the rest has served him well.
The Bianconeri's two-point lead at the top of the Serie A table could be a thing of the past come kick-off time due to Napoli facing Sassuolo earlier on Saturday.
Milan's recent improvement makes them extremely dangerous opponents and Chiellini's experience is sure to be crucial against the Rossoneri.
Juve are 3/5 to win the game, with the draw 13/5 and Gennaro Gattuso's resurgent side 11/2.
After the brief hiatus for the international break, all eyes are back on club action and Juventus have a busy few weeks with the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final against Real Madrid on the agenda on Tuesday.
Allegri confirmed the positive update on Chiellini on Friday, while also insisting that he is embracing the challenge of facing his former club.
"Chiellini is fine, he'll play tomorrow," Allegri told a Press conference.
He added: "We must have the ambition and objective of getting to May 27. Tomorrow we play Milan, then there are seven game before Napoli.
“It's a beautiful moment to face, with great enthusiasm. We're working to go as far as possible in every competition.
"The Rossoneri are a very technical team and Gattuso has organised them."
Juve can be backed at 1/10000 for another Scudetto, while they are 12121/1 to win the Champions League.
