Coming off one of their best performances of Max Allegri’s second stint in Turin, Juve head back out on the road to Sassuolo in what is certainly a fixture that has a bunch of potential for a letdown kind of game this weekend. On Episode 172 of The Old Lady Speaks Podcast, we discuss: Last Saturday against Lazio was quite the enjoyable outing at the Allianz Stadium.
