Juventus manager Massimiliano Allegri previewed the upcoming showdown with Roma at the Allianz Stadium in Turin.

The Italian technician addressed the media in today’s press conference.

“We are in a good moment but football thrives on balance, so we need to keep our feet on the ground. At the moment we are not even halfway through the season, once this month is over we will see where we will be in the standings.”

“Tomorrow we face a tough team, with one of the best coaches in the world. They have talented players up front.”

“This is a direct clash against a strong team that has the same ambition as us. They beat Napoli last week, it will be a complicated, hard-fought match.”

“Mourinho? José is a winning coach. You may like him or not but the results count, for me being compared to him or Ancelotti is a great honor. The first time I faced Mourinho I was in Cagliari and he had already won a lot by that point.”
