Former Italy coach Giovanni Trapattoni insists Juventus can still win the Scudetto this season.

Trapattoni also dismissed suggestions the Bianconeri are weak in defence, and believes they can get back into the Scudetto race.

“Juventus weak in defence? No, absolutely not. They've conceded some strange goals, but the goalkeeper [Gigi Buffon] is a guarantee.

“Juve aren't showing any apparent fear, they have players who know what to do such as [Giorgio] Chiellini. They have a good midfield, and one of the best attacks.

“I'm convinced that they can recover, although they have a few opponents in front of them. It's not easy to surpass them all.

“Who is the best? Fiorentina are playing good, vibrant football. The League comes alive now, but spring is the moment of truth."
