Quotes
"We earned a good point, the lads were solid, they played well for the first hour. We knew it wouldn't be easy, Atalanta put us under a lot of pressure. We took a risk in the end, we have to be more careful, but it's part of our growth," Juventus manager Massimiliano Allegri said after his side's draw against Atalanta.
"We didn't lose, we still scored points and didn't concede a goal. Now let's think about the Derby, which is also very important for maintaining our position in the standings. We could have been calmer in the first half with the ball at our feet, but the boys did well, we lacked a bit of conviction in going for goal.
"We need to think about playing, we have a difficult match on Saturday, regardless of the fact that we don't have cup games midweek; as I said, we have to stay there in the top four, and not having lost tonight is good for our morale."
Head-to-Head
Juventus claimed a 4-2 win over Torino in their last meeting in the league which was on 28 February 2023 at the Allianz Stadium.
